Cherry DC Series Subminiature Sealed Microswitch, 5A, SPDT, Plunger

The Cherry DC Series subminiature microswitch (model UDC1C-C3AA) is a sealed snap-action switch designed for reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. This robust switch features a thermoplastic plunger actuator and is rated at 5A at 125/250VAC, making it suitable for a wide range of control and power management applications.

With a SPDT contact configuration and wire lead terminals on the actuator side, this microswitch simplifies wiring in tight spaces. It delivers a high operating force of 200N, ensuring positive actuation and durability. The switch operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, providing stable functionality in extreme conditions.

Sealed to IP 6K7, the enclosure protects against dust ingress and powerful water jets, making it ideal for applications where exposure to moisture or particles is a concern. Its subminiature size and lightweight construction (only 16g) allow for easy integration into compact assemblies.

Typical applications include industrial automation, power management systems, process control equipment, and other control circuits requiring high reliability and environmental sealing. The switch's robust design and high force threshold ensure long service life, even in high-vibration or high-use environments.
