What is the basic switch failure rate?
ID： FAQE20016E
update:
Answer
The failure rate of the basic switch is the contact reliability test data under a microload. For our basic switches, the N level is used as a reference value.
For high-capacity loads, the number of electrical switching is guaranteed.
Explanation
Calculated based on reliability engineering, the failure rate is the number of failures in relation to the total number of operations.

Q
Which basic switches are suitable for microload?
- A
Our basic switches with rated current of 0.1 A support microload.
-
Q
What kind of problems may occur if the set current is below the “minimum applicable load” for a basic switch?
- A
Below the minimum applicable load for a basic switch, the contact surface is more susceptible to the chemical coating formed due to the influence of the surrounding environment, leading to potential contact failure.
-
Q
What may have caused a basic switch failure?
- A
Failures of a basic switch may be caused by the following two reasons:
1. Failures related to electrical characteristics: contact failure, malfunction, contact welding, insulation degradation
2. Failures related to mechanical characteristics: operating failure, external damage
