22mm Flush Mount Switches from IDEC

By Patrick Curran | September 13, 2011

With more than sixty years of experience, IDEC has earned a global reputation for designing reliable switch­es manufactured with the highest levels of quality, technology and safety. Our new, low-profile 22mm CW switches are no exception.

Projecting only 2.5mm when mounted on a panel, these switches provide a sleek, updated look. In fact, the 3-across contact block design only protrudes 39.9mm behind the panel, the shortest depth behind the panel in their class. Perfect for any application requiring a hygienic surface, the smooth design cuts down on surface area, preventing dust and other particles from accumulating and making regular cleaning and maintenance easier. CW switches are ideal for instrumentation, medical equipment, food and beverage pro­cessing equipment, semi-conductor equipment, non-industrial applications (train cab, parking machines, audio/visual equipment), machine tools, panels and more!

CW switches are also designed to perform in outdoor applications. Operators are made of a durable, industrial-grade resin that provides superior resistance to ultraviolet (UV) rays. Available with black or metallic bezels, choose from illuminated pushbuttons, pushbuttons, pilot lights, selector switches and key selector switches in six colors (amber, green, white, red, blue and yellow). Plus, new LED/lens technology, means CW pilot lights and illumi­nated pushbuttons are brighter than ever, providing superior visibility whatever the application.

IP20 finger-safe contacts extend only 39.9mm behind the panel thereby saving space, while seven possible keys provide added security. CW switches are UL listed, TUV recognized and CE marked.
