  2. Reed switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_switch

    There are also versions of reed switches with mercury-wetted contacts. Such switches must be mounted in a particular orientation, lest drops of mercury bridge the contacts even when not activated. Since the contacts of the reed switch are sealed away from the atmosphere, they are protected against atmospheric corrosion. The hermetic sealing of ...

  3. Miniature snap-action switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniature_snap-action_switch

    Switch reliability is largely a question of the contact force: a force that is reliably adequate, but never excessive, encourages long life. Common applications of micro switches include the door interlock on a microwave oven, leveling and safety switches in elevators, vending machines, arcade buttons, and to detect paper jams or other faults ...

  4. Electrical contact - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_contact

    When the contacts touch, the switch is closed; when the contacts are separated, the switch is open. The gap must be an insulating medium, such as air, vacuum, oil, SF 6. Contacts may be operated by humans in push-buttons and switches, by mechanical pressure in sensors or machine cams, and electromechanically in relays.

  5. Mercury switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_switch

    A mercury switch is an electrical switch that opens and closes a circuit when a small amount of the liquid metal mercury connects metal electrodes to close the circuit. There are several different basic designs (tilt, displacement, radial, etc.) but they all share the common design strength of non-eroding switch contacts.

  6. Electric strike - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_strike

    Electric strike with monitoring contact. An electric strike is an access control device used for door frames. It replaces the fixed strike faceplate often used with a latch (also known as a keeper). Like a fixed strike plate, it normally presents a ramped or beveled surface to the locking latch allowing the door to close and latch just like a ...

  7. Electromagnetic door holder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_door_holder

    The mechanism may be mounted near the floor, at the upper corner of the open door, or at any convenient height along the latch edge (away from the hinged edge). A steel plate, often mounted on a ball joint or swivel joint, is attached to the door so that it can contact the electromagnet when the door is fully opened. An electric current ...
