I. Definition and function of waterproof micro switch

Waterproof micro switch is a specially designed micro switch with waterproof and dustproof characteristics. It usually adopts a sealed structure, which can effectively prevent water and dust from entering the inside of the switch and ensure the stability and reliability of the switch.

Waterproof micro switches are mainly used in environments where waterproof and dustproof are required, such as outdoor equipment, automotive electronics, home appliances, and so on. It can work properly in wet or dusty environments to ensure the normal operation and safety of the equipment. At the same time, the waterproof micro switch also features sensitive triggering and high reliability, which can meet the needs of various environments.

II. Structures and features of waterproof micro switches

Waterproof micro switch is a specially designed micro switch with a waterproof function for use in wet or dusty environments. Their structure and characteristics are as follows:

1. Structure: A waterproof microswitch usually adopts a housing with good sealing performance, and uses waterproof material for encapsulation inside to prevent moisture or dust from entering the inside of the switch to affect its normal operation. At the same time, the contact part of the switch is also specially treated to improve its waterproof performance.

2. The waterproof microswitch has the following features:

– High waterproof performance: It can effectively prevent water, moisture, and dust from entering the inside of the switch to ensure the stability and reliability of the switch.

– Strong durability: made of high-temperature and corrosion-resistant materials, it has a long service life.

– High sensitivity: the contact of the switch is designed precisely and operated sensitively, which can respond quickly and ensure the accuracy of the switch.

– Easy to install: usually installed by screw fixing or welding, convenient and quick.

Overall, the waterproof micro switch has the features of good waterproof performance, durability, high sensitivity, and easy installation, which is suitable for all kinds of humid or dusty environments to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

III. Application areas of waterproof micro switches

Waterproof micros witches are widely used in the following fields:

1. Automotive industry: used for electronic equipment and control systems inside the car, such as window controller, seat adjuster, steering wheel button, etc.
