Pushbutton switches and pushbuttons are electromechanical products and essentially have two functions: to connect a power source and a device for a specific point in time, or to disconnect this connection temporarily or permanently. Operating safety is important in this context: the live switching contacts and any operating elements must always be separated so that they are safe to touch.
A basic distinction is made between purely mechanical and electronic switches and whether the products are installed visibly or invisibly. Depending on the area of application, appropriate adjustments must be made in terms of production and design. For example, some switches are equipped with signal elements that indicate the switching status.
The quality and properties of the contacts determine the service life of the products. The pushbutton switches and pushbuttons are used in household applications, but above all in industry, telecommunications and medical technology.
