From miniature pilot lights and switches that mount into 8mm panel cut outs through full size industrial switches that mount into 30mm cutouts, we have a switch or indicator for almost any application. Terminations include solder / quick connect terminals, screw terminals, or PC board pins for direct board mounting. Miniature models use snap action gold plated contacts for superior low level switching, whereas larger models use slow-make, double break contacts for switching heavier loads, up to 10A. Many models offer the flexibility of modular construction, which allows you to change contacts, lamp voltages or button colors easily.

HW Series

Building on a long history of pushbutton dominance, IDEC offers its internationally rated 22mm pushbuttons and pilot devices, the HW series. These IEC style devices feature tamperproof mounting and construction, modular stackable contact blocks with IP20 fingersafe screw terminals, and pure silver contacts with a self cleaning action. Models include illuminated and non-illuminated pushbuttons, pilot lights, selector switches, key switches, mono-levers, pushbutton-selectors, and Emergency Stop switches.

Safety and ease of use were of paramount concern in the development of this line of switches, as evidenced by the simple mounting procedure, mechanically keyed safety lever lock (to prevent contact separation in heavy vibration applications), and wide variety of Emergency Stop models (all of which meet EN418).

Unique to the HW series is the HW Unibody E-Stop, which features one piece construction that prevents tampering or incorrect mounting from hindering the functionality of the switch. Another first is the spring loaded captive screw terminals, which make ring terminal wiring easier than ever before.

• 22mm (7/8") panel cutout
• Locking lever removable contacts
• Finger safe (IP20) screw terminals standard, other terminal styles available
• Tamperproof mounting and construction
• All E-Stops meet EN418 (IEC compliant, positive action)
• UL listed, CSA certified, TUV approved, and CE marked
• Easy to assemble
• Available assembled or as sub-components
• Super bright incandescent or LED illumination
• Black plastic or silver metal bezels
• Slow make, double break, self cleaning 10A contacts
• IP65 and NEMA type 1, 2, 3, 3R, 4, 4X, 5, 12, and 13
• 600V/10A contacts with a wide operating range from 5mA at 3V AC/DC to 10A at 120V AC

TW Series

A traditional NEMA style switch, the TW series features a chrome plated octagonal locking ring that fastens from the front of the panel. Modular construction with snap-on contacts allows for great flexibility in configuration.

Contacts are slow make, double break with a self-cleaning action that produces a wide switching range (from 5mA to 10A). Several screw terminal styles are available from the standard exposed full size M3.5 screw to a fingersafe (IP20) screw terminal (contacts are interchangeable with the HW series). Models include illuminated or non-illuminated pushbuttons, pilot lights, selectors, key switches, and Emergency Stop switches.

• 22mm (7/8") round mounting hole
• Super bright incandescent or LED illumination
• Corrosion resistant octagonal chrome plated locking bezel
• Snap on 10A contacts
• Modular contruction for maximum flexibility
• NEMA 4X and IP65 watertight/oiltight panel sealing
• Available assembled or as sub-components
• Large M3.5 screw terminals with captive sems plate
• UL Listed, CSA Certified, TUV Approved, and CE Marked

ARN Series

The ARN series of mono-lever switches are an ideal solution for such applications as table or tool X-Y positioning. These switches mount into a standard 30mm round panel cutout and offer up to four directions of control. Three styles of handle include the standard lever, a short lever that helps prevent person from bumping into it, and an interlocking lever that requires an operator to deliberately pull on a release mechanism before activating the switch. Lever action can be maintained or momentary (spring return) in any combination. Typical applications include tool positioning and security camera control (tilt and pan).

• 30mm (1 1/4") round panel cutout
• Up to four positions
• Maintained or spring return in any combination
• 3 styles including an interlocking lever
• Contacts rated for 10A / 600V
• UL Listed, CSA Certified

TWTD Series

The rugged "full size" TWTD series pushbuttons offer both variety and durability in an attractive design. With NEMA style mounting, which features a chrome plated locking ring that screws onto a die cast zinc body, stripped threads are now a thing of the past. Contacts screw on and feature clear inspection windows for monitoring contact surface condition.

All units include over 1/4" of rubber gaskets and an unbreakable steel anti-rotation ring for use in notched panel cutouts.

Models include illuminated and non-illuminated pushbuttons, pilot lights, selectors, key switches, and Emergency Stop switches. Button sizes are available up to 2-9/16" (65mm) in diameter.

• 30mm (1 1/4") round panel cutout
• Rugged design includes chrome plated steel locking ring and die-cast zinc threaded body
• Super bright LED or incandescent illumination
