Precautions for Pasting and Storage of Membrane Switch

To use a membrane switch, we must know the using steps, so that the membrane switch would not be damaged. The way of use determines the service life of the membrane switch to a certain extent. The precautions for pasting and storage of membrane switches and membranes are described as follows:

1.Pasting Steps:

1) Cleaning: Clean the liner, casing or pasting position (the surface to be pasted is required to be smooth, rust-free, oil-free, and dust-free).

2) Check the size: Put the membrane switch (before peeling off) to the place to be pasted to compare whether it is qualified;

3) Alignment: Peel off the adhesive on the back of the membrane switch about 10mm from the side (better on no-button area ), and then paste it to the corresponding position. Check the position of the entire switch and then continue to paste;

4) Pasting: peeling and pasting (the curvature of the membrane switch surface shall not be greater than 15°);

2. Precautions for Pasting:

1) Pasting cannot be repeated, it must be done at one time, otherwise it may affect the performance of the adhesive;

2) The curvature of the membrane switch should not be greater than 15°. The operating buttons must be placed flat and then pressed. Do not operate when there is no liner or the buttons are suspended, otherwise it will affect the performance of the metal dome and severely may cause a short circuit.

3. Precautions for Storage:

1) The front and back of the product are generally covered with transparent film to protect the surface of the product or the display window from scratches. The protective film should be kept;

2) After taking out a few of them from the original package, the rest should be tied as before, but not too tightly;

3) Products with tactile feel need to be packed upright to prevent the buttons from weakening the tactile feel due to long-term pressing;

4) The cable and connector of the membrane switch should be well protected and not placed downward;

5) Products with windows or products with tactile feel should be protected from bending by force, the performance will be affected. Severely, it may cause short circuits and dome rebound failure, leading to a switch scrap.

6) The membrane switch is stored in a room at normal temperature and should be protected from dust and moisture, with no acid, alkaline or other corrosive gas in the surrounding air.

What Exactly Is the Difference Between IP66 and IP67?

What is IP67 and what is the difference between it and IP66? This is probably the question that JRPanel engineers have been asked most often recently. On the online pricing page of JRPanel's website, a new option appears in the Rear Adhesive section: 3M300LSE & Waterproof ( IP67 ). In fact, this is a waterproof process recently upgraded by the JRPanel factory. This process can bring more possibilities to your products, and it also marks that JRPanel's products have reached a new level. So what is the difference between IP67 and the previous IP66 process ? In this article, we will explain in detail. In the previous article Criteria for the Classification Ratings of Ingress Protection , we introduced that the ingress protection rating is composed of two digits. The first digit represents the level of the electrical appliance's ability to prevent intrusion of foreign objects, and the second digit ...

Brief Introduction to Flat Spiral Coil Inductors

Hi guys! Today JRPanel would like to share a few points about Flat Spiral Coil Inductors with you. Basically, a flat coil inductor is an inductor wound with flat copper wire. The picture below is the side view, we can see that each circle of copper wire is arranged very compact. Here are some of the application characteristics of flat coils : 1. High current inductance 2. Lowest DC resistance 3. Can ensure smooth drop of current-resistant inductance 4. Suitable for reflow SMT process 5. Lead-free, RoHS compliant This pciture shows a flat coil product. It is generally used in power supplies, personal computers and other handheld electronic devices . Advantages of F lat C oil I nductors are : 1. Scientific and reasonable space design. 2. Tight and flat between turns ensures the effective cross-sectional area of the wire, which greatly reduces the copper loss ...

Identify Different Types of Transformer Cores, Based on Materials

Hi guys, this is JRPanel ! In previous blog s, we have introduced several points about High Frequency Transformer, like bobbins and Flat Spiral Coil . In this blog, JRPanel would like to introduce the commonly used magnetic cores in transformers , based on materials. Generally speaking, the material of the core determines the environment in which the transformer is used. A transformer that uses a core of a different material will have its performance affected, may even be non-functional. By material, magnetic cores are generally divided into the several categories . JRPanel will introduce them one by one to help you understand more fully. 1. Manganese Zinc Ferrite Core Mn-Zn core is a soft magnetic core with high initial permeability (2000~15000). The higher the initial permeability, the lower the surface resistance, so it is generally used in circuits below 1 MHz. Mn-Zn core has a high saturation ...
