A new range of space-saving industrial switches has been developed by EAO that are suitable for high-tech operator controls. The new Series 51 switches are designed to occupy less space behind the panel. The switches measure 34mm including the contact block. The devices allow more contact blocks to be stacked in the same space and more room for additional system components. This is advantageous in flat-panel touchscreen interfaces, wireless remote controls, handheld pendant controls, or any piece of equipment where behind-panel space is restricted.
The range is made up of illuminated pushbuttons, indicators, selector switches and key switches in a choice of sizes, shapes and materials manufactured in hard-wearing plastic and aluminium. Many different lens and bezel colour combinations are possible to create attractive, functional controls.
