New Series 71 Snap-Action Switches from EAO
Switch manufacturer, EAO Ltd has inttroduced the latest in easy-installation pushbutton technology with its new range of Series 71 snap-action switches.
Replace those filament lamps with LEDs!
Sussex based specialist manufacturer and supplier of commercial and industrial switch products EAO recommends the replacement of filament lamps with LEDs.
Depending on requirements, the lens on the pushbutton or indicator can be flush-mounted to the front panel or raised for viewing the status from the side.
An extended or sealed ring can be fitted where extra lens protection is required.
A selection of lens colours and film inserts for legends or symbols is also available.
Both the lens and lamp are serviceable through the front panel.
Filament lamps, neons or multichip LEDs provide illumination with a choice of either continuous or flashing light elements.
Operating at relatively low current levels, LEDs have a virtually limitless service life.
They are very resistant to shock and vibration and their operating characteristics change little with age.
Series 04 indicators and snap-action or slow-make pushbuttons come standard with hard silver contacts.
However, for particularly aggressive environments, silver/palladium contacts can be specified, and for switching lower currents a gold plated contact is available.
There is a choice of either screw or plug-in terminals.
The variety of switching elements enables currents from 2mA at 110V DC to 10A at 24V DC. Request a free brochure from EAO ...
