Linear Switching Elements:


Strip-Switch™ linear switching elements are normally open, momentary-contact, pressure-activated switches. They are available in lengths ranging from 2 inches to 2,000 feet.


The conductors are made from a precisely formulated alloy that has very low resistance. It is then specially processed to produce a highly consistent switching action, together with an extremely long mechanical life expectancy.


Strip-Switch™ products are designed for more than 5 million operations at any given point.

Linear

Switch Operation

  1. When a load is applied to the rib, it causes the top conductor to be deflected toward the lower conductor.
  2. When the upper conductor is deflected enough to touch the lower conductor, the switch is activated.
  3. When the load is removed, the upper conductor breaks contact with the lower conductor.
