The ceramic surface is new to switching technology, says the vendor,
providing enhanced features including full illumination of the
actuating surface; resistance to scratches, abrasions, impact and
chemicals; hypoallergenic to touch. The switch is available with or
without illumination. The non-illuminated version offers a translucent
white actuating surface. The switches have a low profile of 1.7mm,
which prevents impact from the side. The switch front withstands a high
level of impact with a rating of IK07 and has an IP 69K protection
class rating for seal-tight protection against liquids and common
chemical agents. The MSM CS microswitch is UL, CSA and ENEC approved
and is available in 19mm and 22mm mounting diameters. Pricing starts at
about $18 per piece in 100-unit quantities. Schurter Inc.www.schurterinc.com800.ASK.4WEG
