Foremost expands its switch product offering
26 August 2010

Foremost Electronics has added new products to its MEC multimec switch range, including orange and white LED illumination, and frosted caps for more even light dispersion. A custom cap printing service is also offered. There are four basic switch modules, 3A, 3C, 3E and 3F, which provide all the components you need to assemble a wide variety of switching options, both illuminated and non-illuminated, and offering a mechanical life of ten million switching cycles. A 1mm actuator travel combined with 3N actuation force provides a positive, audible switching action.
All multimec switches are sealed to IP67M and may be specified with optional increased actuation force, to provide additional tactile “feel” in noisy environments. Conversely, a "quiet" version is available for audio, broadcast or medical applications.
The multimec range is RoHS compliant available in either through-hole or surface mounting, with either silver or optional gold contacts and in standard or high temperature models.
