Widely Used
Product Description
By lengthening the hinge lever, the operating force (OF) of the switch can be reduced to as low as 0.34 N, making it ideal for devices that require delicate operation. They are available with a single pole double throw (SPDT) or single pole single throw (SPST) contact design.

Application
Renew’s miniature basic switches are widely used in industrial equipment and facilities or consumer and commercial devices such as office equipment and home appliances for position detection, open and closed detection, automatic control, safety protection, etc. Here are some popular or potential application.
Office Equipment
Integrated into large office equipment to ensure the proper operation and functionality of these equipment. For example, switches can be used to detect if paper is properly positioned in a copier, or if there is a paper jam, issuing an alarm or stopping operation if the paper is incorrect.
Automobiles
Switch detects the state of the brake pedal, ensuring the brake lights illuminate when the pedal is pressed and signaling the control system.
Vending machine
Switch in vending machine detect whether a product has been successfully dispensed, monitor the levels of products, and detect whether the door is open or closed.
