Contact
Contact Materials
Terminals
Copper or and copper alloy.
Contact-point
Silver or silver alloy Ag Ni 90/10 are primary contact materials used in Bär manual operated switches Gold-plated contacts on request.
Contact disconnection
The most of the switches have a contact disconnection of 3 mm.
Switches with a contact disconnection of < 3 mm are marked by the sign μ.
Terminals
Tab terminal
Solder terminal
PCB terminal
bush- terminal
Screw less terminal
