◎ Anti-vandal buttons require less space behind the panel

CDOE introduced a antivandal button that required less rear space than earlier 22mm offerings.
The GQ series has shorter lugs than the AGQ series and is available in solder or wire versions. The welded version is 21.15 mm long from the front of the panel to the tips of the lugs.
The stroke is 1.8 ± 0.2 mm, the operating force is 4.5 ± 1.5 N, the mechanical life is 1,000,000 cycles, and the electrical life of the 36V 2A momentary contact is 200,000 full load cycles. IP67 tightness level.
The buttons can be plain stainless steel with an illuminated ring or with a ring and power logo.
The illuminated version is equipped with LEDs in two different colors: red+green or red+blue, or one color with a choice of white, red, yellow, green or blue. The integrated LED current limiting resistors are available in 6V, 12V or 24V versions for operation and 3V for red or yellow types.
The GQ series is commonly used in applications such as security and safety systems, push-to-talk intercoms, food and drink vending machines, car park ticket/ticket machines, and industrial instruments.

Each switch in these two series(AGQ/AW) is suitable for 22mm mounting and can be used as pushbuttons (with and without illumination), selector switches, key switches and indicator/indicator lights.
The economical AW series (22mm industrial switch series) provides all the essential functions required by the industrial automation market, including pushbuttons, backlit pushbuttons, keys and selector switches.
The AGQ Series (Industrial Switches with 22mm Recessed Design) is a popular solution when product style is important and must be combined with high performance. This product line is widely used in the medical devices, consumer products and food industries where aesthetics and reliability are the keys to success.
The AW Series (22mm Industrial Switches) is IDEC’s largest portfolio of switches and actuators for the industrial automation market, including rotary switches, selector switches, combined rotary and push buttons, 4- or 5-position selectors, and many more options.
