The IK10 is the highest impact rating which means that the push button on off can offer the highest level of protection.

• Waterproof push button on off

The waterproof push button on off is a sealed type of switch to protect itself from dust or water ingress.

They usually bear the Ingress Protection seal or IP followed by two number digits.

These numbers denote how protected the push button on off against any entrance of solid particles or any liquids.

The highest IP rating is IP69k.

Knowing these features will help you find the best push button on off for your application or your project.

You will have peace of mind that your push button on off will not be easily damaged and will last longer.

Fun Fact: The first push button on off transformed our sense of light

In 1899, the first push button on off application is on the electric “Ever-Ready” flashlight invented by David Misell for an American electrical manufacturing company now known as Energizer Holdings.

The electrical flashlight is powered by “D” batteries positioned from front to back of its cylinder.

On its end is the light bulb with a brass reflector controlled by the push button on and off.

The company donated some of these electric flashlights to the New York law enforcement and the feedback was very positive and satisfactory.

Ever since then, push button on off has been used in other devices and inventions such as the early Kodak camera, doorbells, light switches, radios, home appliances, and automobiles.

Different applications of the push button on off

5. What exactly happens when you press the push button on off?

To understand this better, you need to know the parts of the push button on off first.

The push button on off has two main parts which are the head and the body.

The head has the actuator or the button that you press to actuate the switch.

While the body houses the push button on off interior components.

These components are the spring, static and movable contacts.

The contacts are the conductive components of the push button on off.

The movable contacts are positioned under the actuator, and then the static ones are fixed on the terminals.

When you press the actuator of the push button on off, the spring inside it contracts and the contacts touch each other.

This position permits the flow of current and actuates the switch.

And when you release the actuator, the spring expands, the contacts separate, and the current flow stops.

What is described here is just one example of what happens when you press the push button on off.

It is because there are contact states and switch actions that affect how it works which are also necessary to learn to help you find the precise switch for your application.

6. What are the different contact positions of the push button on off?

The push button on off has two main contact positions when it is not actuated.

These contact positions changes when you press the actuator to actuate the switch.

This is also true with the other types of switches.

Below are the two contact positions and a brief description of each:

• The normally open push button on off

In this contact position, the contacts are open or they sit separately away from each other and the current is not flowing.

But if you press the actuator, the contacts make contact with each other permitting the current to flow.

This contact position is also called the push to make, push to close switch, or NO push button.

• The normally closed push button on off

In here, the contacts are originally connected and the current is freely flowing.

By pressing the actuator, the contacts separate, and the current stops flowing.

This is also called the push to break, push to open switch, or NC push button.

The normally open push button on off and normally closed push button on off contact states are denoted by different symbols in an electrical circuit.

Depending on the type of circuit diagram, these contact states can be represented by their general or schematic symbols.

These symbols are also essential to know so you can identify which contact position of a push button on off you need to purchase.

7. What is the push button on off switch actions and why are they important?

The push button on off has two types of switch actions which are the momentary push button on off and the latching push button on off.

These switch actions are also available in other types of switches.

You need to know the difference between the two otherwise you may end up purchasing the push button on off with the wrong switch action.

Here are the switch actions and what they are:

• Momentary push button on off

In this type of switch action, the actuator does not stay compressed after pressing it rather it will spring back to its original position.

It is also known as momentary on off push button.

Examples of this are doorbells, vehicle horns, vending machine buttons, dispensers, and parking ticket buttons.

• Latching push button on off

This is also known as the maintained switch action or latching on off switch because when you press the actuator, it stays compressed not until you press it again.

Some examples of this are call buttons on elevators, light switches, controls on audio types of equipment, and many more.

You must know which type of switch action you will need for your application.

For instance, you may have difficulties in using a momentary push button on off for an application that needs a latching switch action and it may not work properly at all.

This could also lead to confusion in using the push button on off, delay in production in factories, waste of valuable money, and so on.

Example of momentary push button on off application

8. Does the push button on off have configurations in an electrical circuit?

The push button on off has two types of configurations in an electrical circuit.

It can be SPST which stands for Single Pole Single Throw and SPDT which means Single Pole Double Throw.

The number of poles implies the number of circuits that the switch can control and for the push button on off, both configurations have single poles.

The number of throws indicates how many positions the actuator can perform and in this case, the push button on off has two actuator positions which are the “on” and “off” positions.

The SPST push button on off has a single input and single output while the SPDT push button on off has a single input and double outputs that can be interchanged depending on how it is wired.

In an electrical circuit, you will find that they have a distinct symbol that represents the number of poles and throws they have.

This will enable you to determine easily the type of configuration you need for your push button on off’s application.

SPDT and SPST NO NC symbols

9. How to wire a push button on off switch with LED?

Usually, when you order a push button on off switch, you will also receive its wiring instructions along it.

But if you were not able to, here’s a simple guide on how to wire a push button on off switch.

If you would like to have the LED always lit up regardless whether the push button on off is actuated or not:

1. Take one wire and connected the NO pin to the positive pin.
2. Then connect another wire from the positive pin to the device.
3. Connect a different wire to the common or “C” pin then to the power supply.
4. Then for the ground, connect one wire to the negative pin.

And if you would like to only have the LED lit up when you press the actuator of the push button on off, here’s how you can do it:

1. Get one wire and connect it to the NO pin to the positive pin.
2. Then take another wire and connect it to the positive pin then to the power supply.
3. Then connect a different wire to the common pin.
4. Lastly, connect another wire to the negative pin for the ground.

Both instructions are simple and similar since the only difference between the two is where you connect the wire from the positive pin, whether to the device or the power supply.

Aside from this instruction, you can also request a copy of the wiring instructions of the push button on off you’ve purchased from them or revisit the product listing page since a wiring guide could also be posted in there.

10. What are the factors that can affect the quality and performance of the push button on off?

Some factors affect the quality and performance of the push button on off which could lead to its poor performance, damage, and shortened service life.

These factors are:

• The quality of the push button on off

Push button on off also differs from its quality.

There are those which are high quality made while some are made in poor quality.

The differences between the two opposite qualities are miles in comparison.

High quality push button on off is made to last up to 1 million mechanical life cycles and 200K electrical life cycles.

Because high quality push button on off is made from top quality materials as well, their appearance is visually appealing.

And when it comes to performance, they are highly reliable.

While poor quality push button on off kinds may be cheaper, but the service life could be shorter, they may not have the same look and feel of a high quality switch, and they may deliver unreliable performance.

• Manner of usage

This concerns the way how the push button on off is used.

Sometimes even when the push button on off is high quality, if it’s used beyond its capability, it can be damaged and render no longer functional.

For example, using a standard push button on off on an application where there’s a high risk of abuse such as vending machines, ticketing machines, etc.

For these types of applications, you should consider using the anti vandal push button on off which is built to be heavy-duty and tough for these types of conditions.

• The condition of the environment

The type of environment where the push button on off will be located can also affect the switch.

Typically, this happens when you use a push button on off in an environment where it is not compatible.

For instance, you’ve used a non waterproof push button on off in a wet environment.

Because of this, you are risking water entry to the push button on off that can cause rapid corrosion of its internal components or worse, the danger to the safety of grounded switch.

In this case, you should use a waterproof push button on off that is sealed against water entry ensuring long service life and safe use.

Other types of environments are humid, saline, damp, or some are with extreme temperatures either too hot or too cold.

In every type of environment, there’s a suitable push button on off that is specially built to endure them.

• Shaking equipment

Movements such as vibration, juddering, or pulsation can loosen the components of the push button on off and may cause it to fail to function.

In this scenario, when inevitable, it is best to consider using an anti vandal push button on off that can handle this type of application.

• The current rating

The push button on off has specific current ratings which you can easily identify by checking its product description or a label found on the switch itself.

It is generally recommended that the power supply be less or equal to the current rating of the push button on off rather than supplying it with a higher current rating.

Supplying the push button on off with a higher current rating than what it can handle may burn its contacts and will eventually stop working.

There could be other factors that can affect the quality and performance of the push button on off that are not included in this list.

However, this list already gives you some ideas about what kind of push button on off is right for your application and the type of environment where it will be installed.

14. Why is it ideal to use push button on off for doorbells instead of toggle switches?

Push button on and off is preferred for doobells instead of the toggle switch because of several different reasons.

To be specific, the momentary push button on off is ideally used.

This is because when a visitor pushes the momentary push button on off, the current is applied to the doorbell’s ringing device.

When the visitor stops pressing the push button on off, the current stops flowing.

While the current is being applied, the electromagnet is energized that enables the striker to move and strike the bell.

The electromagnet will be de-energized when the current stops flowing and the striker returns to its resting state with the aid of a spring or gravity.

People do not want to hold the doorbell button for too long, they release it immediately.

Once the push button on off is released, the current halts, therefore no more energy is wasted in the electromagnetic device of the doorbell.

But if further energy is applied, the components of the doorbell may heat up and get damaged.

If a doorbell was designed to have a toggle switch instead of push button on off, you can’t rely on visitors to turn off the current.

The doorbell will turn warm hence will get damaged and its service life shortened.
