AV metal NO/NC pushbutton switches available with illuminated ring 2010-05-18
APEM’s range of rugged AV pushbutton switches has recently been extended to include a new, easy-to-locate, illuminated version. This momentary pushbutton is designed for demanding environments where reliability is crucial.
It is particularly suitable for applications requiring:
- Dual Use: When 2 contacts are required - one for load and one for control - either the NO or the NC (depending on the load type) can be used for the power.
- Safety: When several pushbuttons are used, 2 contacts are connected as a chain to prevent activating both critical functions simultaneously (ex: automatic gearbox).
- Wire or solder terminals. Wire version can include a resistor to power the LED.
Product benefits/features
- LED illuminated ring available in 6 colours
- Dia. 19 or 22 mm bushing
- Max current/voltage rating with restive load of 1A 30VDC
- Solder, wire or cable terminals
- Choice of 3 stainless steel grades for the bushing and plunger providing increased pricing flexibility

New sealing boots for rocker and pushbutton switches 2010-01-14
Sealing boot for KG rocker switches
This accessory is intended for mounting on any KG rocker switch, to improve resistance to dust, frost and mud. The front face of the rocker will also be modified, and for momentary functions, will reach tactile feel of a small membrane switch panel.
This silicone membrane is available in black (P/N U3084) and the actuator surface can be pad-printed with several colours. An example of pad printed membrane (U3083) is shown above.
Sealing boot for LPI pushbutton switches
The LPI series is a range of tactile pushbutton switches for indoor applications. It features the largest actuator and lowest behind-panel depth within the APEM switch range. It has been developed on a modular base to fit the exact needs of technicians and end-users: more than 300.000 configurations are available.
A sealing boot is now available to increase the sealing of any LPI pushbutton (up to IP67) and allow the use of these switches in outdoor applications. Available in black (U3082) but also translucent (U3088). Pad-printed legends can be added.
