Panel switches ideal for industrial applications
The rugged, hardwearing Series 84 switch range, from West Sussex-based EAO, is sealed to IP67 against dust and moisture, making it ideal for uses in industrial applications.
The high-visibility glow creates a more effective interface that attracts attention to a primary function - an on/off switch, for instance.
Light is emitted around the edges of a raised aluminium lens by a 3mm single LED.
Both the lens and LED are available in different colours, including white, blue and green.
The durable build makes it suitable for a variety of industrial applications, especially those in poorly-lit areas, such as ticket issuing machines in car parks, or for stop-request buttons on public transportation vehicles.
The IP67 seal makes it equally suitable for medical equipment that must be frequently washed down or even marine applications.
EAO's Series 84 is a modular pushbutton system of lenses, actuator elements and switching elements designed for a standard 22.5mm cut out.
Short-travel switching system with two independent contact points ensures pleasing tactile operation and guarantees reliable switching, even of extremely light loads.
The range has a maximum rating of 42V AC/DC, 100mA.
EAO can supply Series 84 switches with a 300mm ribbon cable or plug-in terminal. Request a free brochure from EAO ...
