Ball Switch
Ball switches are precision position-sensing devices that use gravity-activated rolling balls to make or break electrical contacts based on orientation angle. These versatile switches detect tilt and position changes, making them ideal for automotive leveling systems, marine applications, and security alarm circuits. With temperature ratings from -40°F to 250°F and both normally-open and normally-closed configurations available, ball switches provide reliable gravity-based position detection in demanding environments.
- Precision ball-activated mechanism responds to specific tilt angles for accurate position and orientation sensing
- Available in normally-open and normally-closed configurations for various circuit control requirements
- Temperature-resistant operation from -40°F to 250°F suits harsh automotive and industrial conditions
- Exposed stud terminal and sealed versions available with or without encapsulated wire leads
- Compact design enables installation in space-constrained locations for tilt, roll, and orientation monitoring
