The working principle of the G5 series micro switch used on the heater
The G5 series micro switch on the heater is usually a mechanical switch, and its working principle is based on physical contact and mechanical movement. G5 series Micro switches are also called limit switches or tact switches. When the button or movable arm of the G5 series microswitch is subjected to external force, the contacts are momentarily electrically connected or disconnected.
G5 series Microswitches are often used to control electrical circuits, such as opening a circuit when a button is pressed, thereby starting the heater’s motor. This is accomplished by connecting the contacts of the microswitch to the circuit. The microswitch will return to the initial state after releasing the external force, allowing the circuit to return to the initial state. This resilience and reliability make microswitches popular in many applications.
Switches play an important role in electrical and mechanical systems. They connect and disconnect circuits through physical contact and mechanical action, thereby controlling the operation of equipment. In heaters, micro switches may be used to control the start and stop of the motor to ensure that the equipment operates in a safe and controllable state.
How G5 series micro switches improve the performance of heaters
The G5 series microswitch itself is a basic component used to control the circuit, and its performance improvement also has a certain impact on the overall performance of the heater. When designing the mechanical structure of the heater, ensure that the location and installation method of the microswitch are reasonable to reduce the possibility of mechanical wear and failure.
1. Durability and lifespan
Choose high-quality, durable micro switches. This ensures that the switch can work stably and reliably over a long period of time and is not easily damaged by frequent use. Use micro-switches with high sensitivity to ensure rapid response under user operation or other triggering conditions. This is important to improve user experience and device responsiveness.
2. Temperature adaptability
Make sure that the G5 series micro switch you choose can adapt to the temperature range in which the heater operates. In high or low-temperature environments, switches still need to work stably and reliably. According to the electrical requirements of the heater, select a micro switch that meets the requirements. This includes matching of electrical parameters such as rated current and voltage.
3. Automatic recovery function
If possible, choose microswitches with automatic recovery capabilities. This can automatically return the switch to normal working status when there is a problem with the equipment, improving the reliability of the equipment. In situations where high-precision control is required, you can consider choosing a microswitch with an anti-shake design to reduce electrical interference generated at the moment of switching.
Introduction of heater
The heater is a combined unit composed of a ventilator, a motor, and a radiator. It is suitable for various types of workshops where the air is allowed to be recirculated. When the air does not contain dust or flammable gases, it can be used for circulating air heating. The heater can be used independently for heating. It is generally used to supplement the deficiencies of the radiator or to use the radiator as on-duty heating. The remaining heat load is borne by the heater.
The air heater is mainly composed of an air heater and a fan. The air heater dissipates heat, and then the fan sends it out to adjust the indoor air temperature. The air heater consists of spiral-finned tubes. For example, the heat dissipation exhaust pipe of a steam-type heater is wrapped around a seamless boiler tube with a wall thickness of Φ21.5 using special equipment with aluminum strips, and the distance between the sheets is 2.5mm. The exhaust pipe and the heat medium circulation pipe are integral welded structures. The working pressure is below 0.8MPa.
As an end device of a hot water or steam heating system, the heater is divided into two categories: hot water heater and steam heater according to the heating medium. The former uses hot water as the heating medium, and the latter uses steam as the heating medium. There are two types of fans for heaters: axial flow and centrifugal. Axial fans are often used in small units; centrifugal fans are often used in large units. Small heaters are available in NC, NF, S, TS, NA, and other models, while large heaters are available in NBL, NLGS, and other models.

Advantages of using micro switches in heaters
There are many benefits to using micro switches in heaters, covering performance, control, safety, and user experience. Microswitches can provide precise electrical control, allowing the heater to start and stop quickly when needed. This enables more precise temperature and wind speed control.
G5 series Micro switches are generally easy to use and provide an intuitive user interface. Users can control the heater by simply pressing or switching the micro switch, making the device more convenient to use. The micro switch can be designed as a single-pole, bipolar, or multi-pole structure and can be used to implement multiple functions, such as power control, temperature adjustment, wind speed adjustment, etc., making the heater more functional.
Microswitches generally do not consume a large amount of power when opening a circuit, so they can help reduce the energy consumption of the heater and improve the energy efficiency of the equipment. Micro switches are relatively small and easy to integrate into the design of the heater. This makes the overall design of the heater more compact and suitable for various occasions.
