This Moujen category focuses on Moujen general-purpose micro switches are offered with multiple heads and actuators for commercial and industrial control applications.
This branch sits within Moujen Industrial Switches & Limit Switches > Micro Switches > General Purpose Micro Switches. Select by lever/plunger geometry, operating force, pretravel/overtravel, contact form, current/voltage rating, terminals and mounting centers.
In machine-control service, actuator geometry and travel are as important as the contact rating. The target should operate the switch positively without using the switch body or actuator as a mechanical stop.
Use the full Moujen series and actuator code when replacing an existing general purpose micro switches device. Housings that look similar may differ in contact action, cable entry, sealing or operating characteristics.
For a new application, document the normal target position, direction of motion, expected travel, switching load and exposure to dust, water, oil or washdown before choosing the switch.
Where general purpose micro switches is used in a guard or safety-related circuit, the complete machine-safety architecture and applicable standards must be considered; selecting a switch with a safety feature does not by itself make the machine safety function complete.
Verify lever/plunger geometry, operating force, pretravel/overtravel, contact form, current/voltage rating, terminals and mounting centers.
No. Also match the switch series, contact form, electrical rating, mounting pattern, cable or conduit arrangement and environmental/safety requirements.
