The Goobay KNX 2 is a miniature toggle switch designed for use in DIY projects and model building. It features a compact design with a blue housing and a metal lever equipped with a red plastic cap. The switch is fitted with six pins serving as solder terminals, enabling easy mounting on printed circuit boards. It is designed for operation in electrical circuits where the maximum load rating of 6 A at 125 V or 3 A at 250 V is not exceeded.

Applications
This switch is particularly suitable for small-scale electronic applications requiring a mechanical switching function with minimal space requirements. Typical applications include self-built devices, model vehicles, small control units, or prototypes, where the clear visual indication of position provided by the red lever is advantageous. The robust construction with a metal lever ensures long service life even with frequent operation.

Functions and Features in Detail
The toggle switch can be held in three positions, with the switching function configured as 2x ON – ON. This means the switch can independently control two separate circuits, with each circuit activated in one of the two ON positions. The third position represents the default state, where both circuits are open. The six solder terminals allow for flexible wiring and are designed for mounting on standard printed circuit boards.

Technology Explained Simply
The maximum load rating of 6 A/125 V or 3 A/250 V defines the limits within which the switch can be safely operated. These values refer to the electrical load the switch can handle without overheating or damaging the contacts. The specification in two variants accounts for different voltage levels, with current reduced at higher voltages. The dimensions of 12.2 mm (length), 11.7 mm (width), and 35 mm (height) make the switch a compact component that fits in limited space. The solder terminals are designed for mechanical fixation to circuit boards, with precise positioning supported by the specified dimensions.

Compatibility and Accessories
The switch is designed for use in electronic circuits requiring a mechanical switching function with two independent ON positions. It is not specifically intended for particular devices or systems, but serves as a universal component. Use in DIY and model building projects requires no special accessories, as the solder terminals connect directly to the circuit board. Compatibility is ensured as long as the electrical parameters (voltage, current) remain within the specified limits.

Mounting and Installation
Mounting is performed by soldering the six pins to the corresponding connections on the circuit board. The positioning of the switch is defined by its dimensions and the arrangement of the solder terminals. The lever is designed for easy operation and provides clear visual feedback on the current switch position. No additional mounting aids or tools are required, as the solder terminals connect directly to the circuit board.

Operation
The switch provides a reliable mechanical switching function with a clear tactile feel. The red plastic cap on the metal lever ensures good visibility of the switch position, which is beneficial during operation. The maximum load rating ensures safe operation in typical applications for model building and DIY projects. The compact design allows flexible placement in confined spaces without compromising functionality.
