DS-316 10mm Red Momentary Push Button Switch

The DS-316 Red Momentary Push Button Switch is a compact, self-resetting switch designed for electronic circuits, control panels, DIY projects, and electrical equipment.

Featuring a 10mm mounting diameter, a red push button, and a durable metal threaded housing, this switch provides simple and reliable momentary control.

The switch operates using a normally open (NO) contact, meaning the circuit closes when the button is pressed and opens automatically when released.

Its compact size makes it suitable for control panels, electronic devices, robotics projects, and other applications requiring temporary switching.

Key Features

• Momentary Operation: Push ON, release OFF.
• Self-Reset Mechanism: Automatically returns to its original position when released.
• Normally Open Contact: Circuit closes only while the button is pressed.
• 10mm Mounting Diameter: Suitable for compact control panels.
• Red Push Button: Easy identification and operation.
• Metal Threaded Housing: Designed for secure panel installation.
• Two-Terminal Connection: Simple wiring for electronic circuits.
• Compact Design: Ideal for DIY electronics and control applications.
• Easy Installation: Threaded body with mounting nut for panel mounting.

Technical Specifications

Pin Configuration and Connection

The DS-316 features two electrical terminals.

Operating Principle:

• Button Released: Circuit open (OFF).
• Button Pressed: Circuit closed (ON).
• Button Released Again: Automatically returns to OFF.

Arduino Connection Example

The switch can be connected to an Arduino digital input using the internal pull-up resistor.

Configure the Arduino input as INPUT_PULLUP.

• Button released: HIGH
• Button pressed: LOW

Applications

• Electronic Control Panels
• Arduino and ESP32 Projects
• Robotics Control Systems
• DIY Electronics
• Reset and Trigger Buttons
• Industrial Control Prototypes
• Audio Equipment
• Electronic Instruments
• Home Automation Projects
• Temporary Switching Applications

Important Notes

• This is a momentary switch, not a latching ON/OFF switch.
• The button returns automatically to its original position after release.
• The switch is normally open (NO).
• Electrical voltage and current ratings must be confirmed before connecting high-power loads.
• For microcontroller applications, use appropriate input pull-up or pull-down configuration.
• The red button is not illuminated.
• Verify the panel mounting hole dimensions before installation.
• Not intended for direct mains-voltage switching unless the manufacturer's electrical rating explicitly permits it.

Package Includes

• 1 × DS-316 10mm Red Momentary Push Button Switch
