High quality luminosity, sealed and shock-resistant pushbutton switches

Digi-Key stock the FD series of APEM’s latest innovation in the wide range of illuminated pushbutton switches. Designed after a traditional pushbutton, the FD series integrates an innovative technology of superposed filters which reacts to green and red light only, allowing the display of different legends depending on the illumination color. The series includes two different legends on a single switch, making it ideal for integrated designs where additional switches or indicators are not necessary. Three standard high quality, screen printed legends are available (I/O, ON/OFF, and START/STOP) with additional legends upon request. APEM say the pushbuttons offers an attractive combination of high quality luminosity with the sealed and shock-resistant durability expected from them. The large but lightweight series is available with 24mm threaded bushing or 26mm snap-in mounting, and in single or double pole.
