    Actuator Style

    Smaller than standard snap-acting switches, these switches trigger actions in tight spaces. They’re used in components as small as computer mice and engine restart switches. They open and close circuits faster than other switches, preventing contacts from sticking by reducing the time that they're near one another. These switches also minimize the chance of arcing, so electricity won’t jump across contacts.
    Plunger Actuator Style—Switches with a plunger actuator send a signal when the actuator is pushed directly downward. They have the smallest actuator of the actuators here, reducing the risk of accidental switching.
    Lever Actuator Style—Switches with a lever actuator have a larger surface area than switches with a plunger actuator and can be pushed down by front-to-back movement, so they require less precision to activate.
    Push Button Actuator—Switches with a push-button actuator stick out more than switches with a plunger actuator, so they’re easier to activate.
    Roller Lever Actuator Style—Switches with a roller lever actuator combine the larger actuation area of a standard lever with a smooth gliding roller actuator. They minimize friction to limit wear and tear on your switch.

    Plunger Actuator Style

    Lever Actuator Style

    Smaller and more sensitive than standard snap-acting switches, these switches fit in tight spaces and actuate from light pressure. Snap-acting switches quickly open or close circuits to reduce arcing and keep contacts from sticking.
    Plunger Actuator Style—Switches with a plunger actuator require a push to activate, similar to a button.
    Lever Actuator Style—Switches with a lever actuator activate when material moves across the arm, which provides a large actuation area.

    To prevent accidental actuation and limit access to sensitive equipment, these switches require a key to turn circuits on or off. The contact block and actuator are all one piece, so they won’t separate in high-vibration applications. Install them in a standard panel cutout. They’re keyed alike, so they will all open with the same key.
