The Normally Open Switch Probe F87517T180N135 (item number 1000628) combines spring-loaded contacting with a defined switching or sensing function. F87517T180N135 combines electrical contacting with a switching signal so that DUT presence or position can be evaluated directly in the test sequence. In F87517T180N135, the normally open function closes the electrical contact at the defined actuation travel, combining contacting with presence or position information. For F87517T180N135, spring force is 135 cN at a nominal travel of 4 mm. F87517T180N135 is rated for 5 A continuous current with a typical contact resistance of 20 mΩ. The design combines a pitch of 2.54 mm / 100 mil with tip style 17T (Metal head insulated with slot) and a tip diameter of 1.8 mm.
