V5 Miniature switches The V5 series of switches is a range of miniature switches The two piece spring and carrier design provides a designed to meet world wide specifications. The V5 series parallel path for higher current carrying capacity and offers a very high electrical capacity, up to 22 Amps, 250 better conduction of heat away from the contacts. Vac, and the capability to withstand high in-rush currents. It has a long mechanical and electrical life, and the Because the C spring and the carrier move miniature thermoplastic housing can meet requirements independently without flexing or hinging as in other to KC 250 or 150 C. Resistance to arcing/tracking and designs, a much greater electrical and mechanical temperature/humidity tolerances are very high. The lifetime is achieved. complete range offers a large variety of contact types, actuators, terminations, operating characteristics and In addition, the V5 overcomes the problem of contact electrical ratings. welding in applications using inductive, capacitive, lamp loads or high in-rush currents. With the V5, the large High current capacity precision switches contact wiping action ensures that slight welds are broken off by the shearing movement when switching. This for long life and high reliability friction contact system also helps clean contacts during The Honeywell V5 series is designed to meet the operation in applications where dust or other stringent requirements of todays designs for high contaminants may be present. It helps reduce contact currents, long operating life, precision and reliability. The resistance and ensures maximum contact reliability internal mechanism is the key. whether switching milliamps or high currents. 2RELEASE POINT FREE 100g P0SITION 22A N.C N.C N.O N.O OPERATING P0SITION FULL OVER-TRAVEL POSITION Contact wiping action Wide range of High current rating with - operating levers: low operating force shearing action of 2 mounting positions (100 g 1 N , 22 A) contacts during Only one operating High grade, flame switching ensures point retardant reliability thermoplastics Safe operating - high overtravel C spring Carrier Gold cross point contacts available for excellent performance in low energy circuits 150C 125 85 Wide range Two-piece spring and High contact of operating carrier mechanism reliability - optimum temperature versions gives extra long reliability due to high 85 C, 125 C, 150 C electrical and contact force mechanical life. 3
