Seameless switch meets demands of shrinking world
EAO meets the demands of a shrinking world, enabling the series 61 E-Stop to be integrated into compact control panels, mosaic panels, and a wide range of machinery and process control equipement.
They can be marked with a wide range of transparent symbols either from EAO's range of standard designs or according to the customer's own.
When fixed in front of a pushbutton's diffuser, they allow light to shine through the symbol and around the edge to create a glowing "halo", which helps the operator identify the switch in unfavourable light conditions.
LED illumination is available in range of colours including white.
These products are popularly used for driver controls by bus, coach, rail and car builders, but are also suitable for applications used within the telecomms, machinery, medical, process control and automation sectors.
The inserts are offered as an addition to the ranges of round Series 61 and Series 71 switches.
These ranges offer raised- or flush-mounting pushbuttons and indicators in either 16 or 22.5mm sizes.
They are protected to IP65 from the front so are suitable for challenging environments. Request a free brochure from EAO ...
