Knitter-Switch has introduced a new series of sealed tact switches designed for a variety of industrial input, automotive and medical systems applications where protection to IP67 is required.
The waterproof TSE 8 and TSSE 8 switches offer space savings when compared to earlier models, yet offer a switch rating of 1 W (maximum 100 mA and 42 V a.c./d.c.). With gold plated contacts, the new tact switches feature a minimum current of 10 mA at 20 mV. They are RoHS compliant and lead-free solderable to 260°C.
The new TSE 8 and TSSE 8 series provide the user with excellent tactile feedback, offer a long operational life of at least one million cycles and are available in both through-hole and surface-mount formats. Two through-hole designs are available, one that saves board space and one that allows for improved solder joint inspection.
