The small single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) limit switch is ideal for keeping track of physical parts in a system. It can also be used as a simple user input button as it makes a noticeable click when pressed. The maximum switching ratings can be found in the manufacturer's datasheet which you should be sure to have a look at. The maximum current that can be switched will vary with voltage. This switch belongs to the RV-16 series.

Features

  • Simple SPDT lever switch
  • Can handle up to 250 volts AC or DC
  • Useful as a limit swtich for moving parts
  • Solder wires to the terminals to connect to a Phidget with a digital input

Interface Boards and Hubs

This switch can be read by connecting one end to a digital input and the other end to the ground pin of the same board. Here's a list of boards with digital inputs:
