MPL 600: Low Pressure Snap-Action Switches

Introduction

MPL 600 Series switches offer pressure or vacuum sensing which combines the features of the MPL 500 Series with snap action switching for higher current capacity, SPDT contact form and switch deadbands (also referred to as mechanical differential or hysteresis). Miniature size and low cost make the MPL 600 Series ideal for OEM applications.
