Switches, Relays & Keypads
C&K Components offers illuminated models for the 3U series Tiny Pushwheel, 3P Series Miniature Pushwheel and 3 Series Thumbwheel switches. These illuminated coded switches feature an internal LED (red, yellow or green) that illuminates the wheel character for visibility in low-light environments. Available in a variety of function codes and termination options, the switches snap in for easy front mounting - no tools or hardware required. Rear mounting is also available with thumbwheel models. Panel openings range from 14,5-31 mm high; switch section pitch ranges from 7,62-12,7 mm.
Pushwheel housings are matte black or grey polycarbonate with gloss black polycarbonate pushbuttons and black polycarbonate wheels with white characters. Thumbwheel housings are matte black or grey ABS with translucent white ABS wheels and black characters. Wheel dust lens, special colours, alternate wheel markings and special switch functions are available.
