Tiny switches feature self-cleaning contacts

Designed for handheld instruments, NKK Switches has launched its G Series of process sealed, ultra-miniature rocker and toggle switches with self-cleaning contacts.

G Series rocker and toggle switches are PCB-mounted and feature NKK’s Sliding Twin Crossbar (STC) contacts, providing logic-level switching reliability.

Terminal spacing of G Series devices is 2.54 mm x 2.54 mm, conforming to standard PCB grid layout. These switches are rated at 0.4VA maximum @ 28V AC/DC maximum. The devices’ miniature size and 0.25 gram weight make them well-suited for rugged applications where panel space is at a premium or where high-density mounting is required.

Options:

• Single or double pole configuration (SPDT or DPDT)
• Five circuit combination: momentary and maintained with up to three actuator positions each
• PC terminal-style mounting in straight, right angle or vertical mount for toggle switches, and straight PC or right angle mount for rocker versions 
• Rocker caps that can be ordered in standard colors of red, black or white

Pricing: In 10ku, G series toggles start at $1.40 each and rockers start at $1.75 each.
