Electric Switch and Button - Minor differences in naming
In everyday speech, a button and a switch function interchangeably, but in technical language they are separate systems. A simple example to illustrate - a bell and a light switch. The switch is a switch , it works by changing the position of the contacts (by pressing).
To turn it off you need to use it again. A bell is a button . It works as long as we press it. After use, it returns to its starting position. Sometimes buttons are called momentary or impulse buttons because when pressed, they close the contacts and then open them.
Monostable and bistable buttons – what are they?
Types of buttons can be divided according to their operation. Following this distinction, one should distinguish between monostable and bistable switches. A monostable button is one that changes its state under the influence of external action and returns to its previous state after the action stops (enables monostable control).
A bistable switch is one that changes its state under the influence of external action and remains in the changed state after the action stops (allows for bistable control). In our store, in the button switches section, both types of switches are available, enabling you to control lighting or control a given device.

In this category, we offer monostable and bistable buttons with pin pitches ranging from 2.54 mm, 5 mm, 5, 5 mm, 8.5 mm, 9.5 mm to 18 mm. In addition, individual buttons differ in the number of pins, maximum contact load and, consequently, in their application.
We offer, among others: threaded push button switches. The monostable and bistable buttons with thread are installed by screwing them into the housing. The bistable button can be used, among others, to control LED lighting from several places.
We also offer modules with a button illuminated by an LED, providing information about the current status of the button. Clear marking of the pins on the board makes it easier to connect and operate the modules. We ship each ordered product as soon as possible, so that the specific delivery time is limited to a minimum.
