Tactile Switching System

The RoHS-compliant Series 14 tactile switching system features visual aesthetics considered key for the range of raised and flush-mount pushbuttons, indicators, switches, selector switches, and key switches. Series 14 is available in 22.5 and 30.5 mm mounting sizes and features a low back-panel depth, benefiting engineers in terms of smooth integration into an end application, especially where space is restricted. Illumination is available through T5.5 lamps or high-intensity single-chip LED’s. Series 14 is available with a choice of lenses, protective front rings, and bezels in both stylish and robust aluminum and stainless steel as well as plastic. Rated at IP67, the series offers protection against vandalism, harsh treatments, and cleaning. These durable products are suitable for operating in wet or dusty conditions. The Series 14 is connected by plug-in or solder terminals. For PC board mounting, an adapter is available. Simple installation, longer switch life, and low maintenance costs make it a suitable human machine interface solution for rugged control panels, which must resist impact, air pollution, and chemical washing.
