This Switch  is rated for 25 amps and is usually found on        208-230vac motors but can also be used on 110v. 

It has 3 screw terminals on the back/ bottom of the Micro switch where wires are connected (wires typically only connected to 2 out the 3 terminals).  The terminals are usually marked “NO” “NC” “COMMON” or “COM” and the switch can be set up for normally open or normally closed operation.The front of the switch has a metal button/ plunger which is what actuates the switches operation.

The plunger goes into a brass colored housing which has threads and nuts allowing the switch to be mounted to the face plate/ cover of the motor. This switch can also be waterproofed by adding a protective rubber cover over the plunger area of the switch if your lift is outside. Call for details on cover. These switches are high quality units meeting all electrical codes and requirements. All our switches have been 10,000 press tested to ensure long life. 

Most of the time when these switches fail, they either burn out at the terminal or can stick on and continually run the motor. Your old switch can be tested with a simple continuity test to identify if the switch is the cause of your problems. This switch can be wired Normally open or Normally closed depending on what terminals are used.
