13000X778 Series Alternate action

Double pole double throw alternate action push buttons with highly reliable contacts suitable for low level or power applications. Their double shell case construction provide extra mechanical strength. This range of professional push button switches is suitable for use in military and other high specification environments.

Associating compact size and alternate function this push button is a good alternative to toggles, which can prove difficult to integrate into the tight cockpits of light armoured vehicles.

MAIN FEATURES

Contacts : Highly reliable contacts suitable for low level applications or power applications.
Double shell case for high mechanical strength and high electrical insulation.
Compact size : The small rear end of the switch allows space saving behind the panel.
Matte black finish on body, bushing, plunger and hardware.
Panel sealed to IP67, these switches are frontal sealed by two O-rings and have full rear end sealing.
Solder lug or PC terminals.
