Answer / murthy

Micro switch is a switch which change the mechanical contacts from one position to another position NO (normally open)to NC (normally close) when the corresponding parameter reaches to set parameter...

power ratings depends upon the material& thickness used for mechanical contacts

Answer / haridass

Micro switch, the name itself says that the switch which
can be operated in the micro movements like
pressure/level/temp sensors fine expansions. It returns
back with the spring operation by switching the potential
free contacts from NO-close & NC-open.

Answer / rahul nayak

Micro switch is just like our ordinary switch but the
difference is that it regains its original position i.e.
normally close contact upon removal of force to it. it has a
spring lever mechanism. & two contacts nc & no. its used for
safety purpose to limiting the movement of some movable
parts & to take a feedback also.many applications are there
in which we can used it.

A temperature sensor (RTD) connected via a temperature transmitter is adjusted to give an output of 4ma at 60 deg and 20 ma at 600 deg. This output (4-20ma) from the transmitter is connected to an IGBT-inverter to control a high speed (-12,000 to +12,000 RPM) DC motor. And in the inverter it is programmed as, for 4ma the motor speed will be -3,000 RPM and for 20ma the motor speed will be +10,000 RPM. The question is : If the motor speed is +5,500 (RPM), what will be the temperature? (-sign indicates that the motion is in reverse direction).
