2341 Momentary Electrical Switch Key

Description

2341 Momentary Switch Key

The 2341 Momentary Switch Key is for a momentary switch, also known as a push-button switch, which is an electrical switch that only remains in the ON state for as long as it is being pressed. When the switch is released, it automatically returns to its default OFF state. These switches are designed to be activated temporarily, meaning they are active only while pressure or force is applied to them. As soon as the actuation is released, they revert to their original position, breaking the electrical connection. The switch functions by turning a key, which aligns with different positions to break or complete the circuit. These different positions correspond to states such as ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’, providing a clear indicator of the circuit’s status.

Unlike typical latching switches that remain in their current state until manually changed, momentary switches are spring-loaded to return to their original position once pressure is removed. This characteristic makes them useful for tasks requiring precise timing and control.

Momentary switches find applications in various devices, from everyday consumer electronics to industrial machinery, hospitals, and automotive systems. They are commonly used in hospitals, intercoms, lighting products, doorbells, and more. The 2341 lock has an 11-disc tumbler mechanism ensuring safety and security with whatever application from computer locking to security system protection. They are used as Reset Keys for KONAMI, BALLY, IGT, WILLIAMS, ARISTO JACKPOT Slot Machines.

Momentary switches consist of two main components: the actuator (typically a button or lever) and the contacts. When the actuator is pressed, it physically moves the contacts together, allowing electric current to flow through the switch and complete the circuit. Once the pressure on the actuator is released, the built-in spring mechanism pushes the contacts back to their original positions, breaking the electrical connection.

For example, the 2341SW is an extra heavy-duty key-operated locking switch designed for maximum tamper-proof operation in hospitals, schools, institutions, public housing, trailer parks, loading docks, freight yards, and other areas. It features a chrome lock dome with two keys provided per switch, allowing authorized personnel to turn the switch on or off. The switch has large combination head terminal screws with external clamps and triple-combination mounting screws for easy installation. It’s also self-grounding when used in a properly grounded metal wallbox.

Momentary switches come in various types, including waterproof momentary push button switches. These waterproof switches are sealed against water infiltration and are reliable even in damp environments, making them suitable for marine electronics, automotive controls, and outdoor apparatuses.
