3 terminals, applicable to AC DC control circuits.Designed to control the movement of a mechanical part.Typically utilized in industrial control applications to automatically monitor and indicate whether the travel limits of a particular device have been exceeded.In snap action contacts, the movement of the actuator applies force to an over-center mechanism. This mechanism creates a quick change in contact state when the trip point is reached. Reversing the motion of the actuator to a given reset point causes the contacts to snap back to their original position.Snap action contacts have different trip and reset points. The distance between the trip and reset point is called the travel to reset, or differential. Finite travel to reset helps to avoid multiple changes of state if the object actuating the switch is subject to vibration.
