The Schaltbau S880 Series subminiature switch is recommended wherever reliable switching functions need to be implemented within a limited installation space. The V4 switch with positive opening operation has the same features as the large snap-action switches, but is only 6 mm wide. However, while these were for the most part developed for special applications, the S880 is designed for the mass production of devices and machines in which safety functions need to be implemented.
The technical principles of Schaltbau’s snap-action switches in designs A and F were transferred to the dimensions of a subminiature switch:
S880 = V4 snap-action switch with positive opening operation
The S880 can be used wherever switching needs to be performed safely within a small space. Its low price makes it ideal for mass-produced applications in which cost pressure is a major factor.
