This Moujen category focuses on these compact switches combine micro-switch packaging with positive-opening contact behavior for applications that need a mechanically driven contact-opening action.
This branch sits within Moujen Industrial Switches & Limit Switches > Micro Switches > Positive Opening Micro Switches. Select by positive-opening certification/marking, actuator force and travel, contact configuration, load, terminal type and mounting.
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 positive opening 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 positive opening 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 positive-opening certification/marking, actuator force and travel, contact configuration, load, terminal type and mounting.
No. Also match the switch series, contact form, electrical rating, mounting pattern, cable or conduit arrangement and environmental/safety requirements.
