Use Chemicals with Caution: Because the toggle switch base plate uses synthetic resins such as polycarbonate, avoid exposing the potentiometer to strong chemical atmospheres such as ammonia, amines, alkaline solutions, hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, and halogenated hydrocarbons.

 

Use Flux with Caution: Avoid using water-soluble flux when soldering, as it will adversely affect the metals and other materials that make up the toggle switch.

 

Soldering: Wiring design and soldering methods should avoid causing molten solder to flow onto the PC board surface, which will cause poor contact.

 

Low-Temperature Operation: When the product is used in low-temperature environments, such as car radios or car audio systems in cold climates, our company provides products with a comfortable feel according to customer requirements. Please specify this when ordering.

 

Slide Length: The shorter the length, the better (at least 5mm). With the slide width A remaining constant, a shorter slide length results in a better feel, while a higher point of force results in a worse feel.

 

Drive Arm Never make the operating point far from the center line of the slide handle; for the same reason, the distance B between them should be as short as possible.
