B12AB

The B - ESD series process sealed Sub-miniature Antistatic Toggle Switch available with toggles, paddles and the industry's smallest alternate action pushbutton. It has antistatic superstructure, consisting of the carbon impregnated bushing and the support bracket prevents static discharge to the contacts. Static electricity from an operator's touch travels from actuator through the bushing and bracket to the PC board. Optional threaded, 6mm-diameter bushing for panel-seal mounting meets IP65 of IEC60529 specifications. The latch-down feature on pushbutton-maintained circuits provides visible, audible and tactile feedback. STC contact mechanism offers benefits unavailable in conventional mechanisms smoother, positive detent actuation, increased contact stability and unparalleled logic-level reliability. Totally sealed body construction prevents contact contamination and allows time-saving soldering and cleaning.

• Locking lever mechanism offered as a toggle option
• Fully sealed construction prevents contact contamination and allows for soldering and cleaning
• 0.1 x 0.1" terminal spacing conforms to standard PCB grids
• Smooth, 6mm-diameter bushing simplifies panel layout
• Epoxy sealed terminals lock out flux and other contaminants
