TILT AND TIP-OVER SWITCHES
The tilt and tip-over switches and motion sensors are available
as mercury metal and our patented non-mercury metal (patents
#5.209.343 and #5.332.876.). Mercury glass tilt switches are
also available. All switches are evacuated, filled with inert
gas and hermetically sealed to ensure long life and low contact
resistance.
TILT SWITCHES
Tilt switches are used to sense movement (tilt) of a device
above and below a horizontal axis. A typical use is in a thermostat.
A glass mercury switch is mounted to a bi-metallic spring which
expands and contracts with temperature. As the spring moves,
the switch contacts pass through the horizontal plane, opening
or closing to operate the furnace or boiler. The angle through
which the switch must move for proper operation – the
differential angle – is measured from the point of just
make to just break; it is specified as a maximum. When selecting
a tilt switch, it is important to ensure that the operating
mechanism can move the switch through an angle greater than
the differential angle. Some additional applications include:
level controls, appliances, security alarm systems, toys and
games, float switches and water-treatment equipment (non-mercury)
.
TIP -OVER SWITCHES
Tip-over switches sense tilt over 360° of a vertical axis.
A common use is in portable heaters used in the home to prevent
electrical shock or fire. When the heater tilts more than a
specified angle, the switch operates turning the heater off.
This angle, called the operating angle, describes the angle
from vertical to the point of contact operation, subject to
a tolerance, ie. 45° ± 10° (35° to 55°).
Both normally closed (tilt to open) and normally open (tilt
to close) switches are available. Some additional applications
include: portable lamps, PC anti-theft devices, vending-machine
alarms and machinery security systems
