"G306A Series Sealed Clamp Micro Switch"
Highly Reliable Environmental Adaptability Solutions
1. Core Product Positioning
The G306A series is a sealed microswitch designed specifically for harsh environments, combining three key technical advantages: long-stroke structure, customized resistor integration, and IP67 protection rating. Its unique sliding contact mechanism features a large contact design, ensuring a 200,000-cycle electrical lifespan while enabling silent operation. It is primarily used in fields such as automotive electronics, industrial automation, and smart home appliances, where weather resistance and reliability are critical.
2. Key Technical Features
Sealed and Weather-Resistant Design
The fully sealed structure is certified to IEC IP67 standards (excluding terminal areas), effectively resisting dust ingress and high-pressure water jets.
Wide temperature range support: continuous operation from -40°C to +85°C, with contact resistance change rate <5% in high-temperature environments.
Gold-plated contacts combined with an inert gas-sealed chamber significantly reduce the risk of electrochemical corrosion in humid environments.
Long-stroke mechanical structure
Operating stroke reaches 10.15mm (standard 00# handle), representing over a 40% increase compared to traditional microswitches.
Dual spring reset system ensures stable contact pressure within a linear speed range of 1–500 mm/s
Optimized lever ratio design keeps operating force between 150–200 gf, balancing tactile feedback and protection against accidental activation
Electrical performance advantages
Initial contact resistance ≤200 mΩ (terminal type), with resistance increase of no more than 15% after 100,000 cycles of life testing
Built-in resistance customization capability: Supports series connection of 1Ω to 20Ω resistors in the COM-NC/NC-NO circuit (e.g., A001 scheme)
Enhanced insulation design: Terminal-to-terminal withstand voltage AC 500V, live parts to metal housing withstand voltage AC 1000V/1 min
