Frequently Asked Questions

What are the body dimensions and height of the IKD0500101 DIP switch?

The IKD0500101 measures 13.64 mm in body length and 6.2 mm in breadth, with a low-profile body height of only 3 mm. This compact form factor allows integration into tight PCB layouts where vertical clearance is limited, and the 0.027 inch actuator length keeps the switch profile minimal.

Is the IKD0500101 suitable for industrial environments requiring compliance certifications?

Yes. The IKD0500101 carries UL approval and is REACH compliant, making it suitable for industrial control and commercial electronics applications. The phosphor bronze contacts provide reliable electrical continuity, and the component is rated to operate across standard industrial temperature ranges with YTEOL of 7 years expected end-of-life.

How does the raised-type polyethylene actuator affect usability in field-configurable systems?

The raised-type actuator made of polyethylene provides a tactile surface that is easy to toggle with a fingertip or small tool, supporting up to the rated actuation cycles. With a 0.027 inch actuator length and dual-in-line pin arrangement, it allows precise 2-position switching per pole for DIP configuration in network or instrumentation hardware.

When should engineers choose IKD0500101 over higher-profile DIP switches for board-level configuration?

Engineers select the IKD0500101 when vertical space is restricted to approximately 3 mm above the PCB surface. Its low-profile dual-in-line housing fits under shields or within enclosures where standard 4 mm to 5 mm tall DIP switches would not clear, while still delivering the same configuration flexibility for industrial and consumer device settings.
