Mercury switches are widely used in a variety of electrical devices due to their high conductivity, long life, high sensitivity, and lack of mechanical noise.
Household appliances
Electric fans: Mercury switches can be used to control the automatic on/off function of electric fans, automatically adjusting the fan's operating status according to changes in ambient temperature or wind speed.
Washing machines: Mercury switches can play an important role in the water level control or automatic on/off function of washing machines, ensuring that the washing machine operates at the correct water level and automatically shuts down after washing is completed.
Air purifiers: Mercury switches can be used to monitor the filter status of air purifiers or indoor air quality, and automatically turn the purifier on or off as needed.
Security systems
Anti-theft alarm systems: When the door and window switches are opened, the mercury switch will also open, triggering the alarm to sound or send an alarm message to the mobile phone, improving the safety of homes and offices.
Fire alarm systems: In some fire alarm systems, mercury switches may be used to monitor tilt changes caused by smoke, temperature, or fire to trigger the alarm mechanism.
Industrial and automation equipment
Electrical equipment: Mercury switches can be used to control the start and stop of industrial electrical equipment and protect the equipment from overload and short circuit.
Robots and automation equipment: In automation equipment such as robot posture measurement and car tilt monitoring, mercury switches can be used as tilt sensors to ensure the stability and accuracy of equipment operation.
Medical equipment
Thermometer: In electronic thermometers, mercury switches may be used to control the switch of the circuit to ensure the normal operation and measurement accuracy of the equipment.
Medical equipment control: In some medical equipment, mercury switches are also used to control components such as valves and pumps to achieve intelligent control and automation of equipment.
