Honeywell's MICRO SWITCH™ V-Basic Series Standard Switches are snap-action products designed for "low cost of failure" operations where the cost to replace a failed switch is minimal. (read more)

Honeywell's BZ Standard Precision Switches contain a spring and set of contacts that convert mechanical energy applied to an actuator into an electrical output and also includes standard size, miniature and sub-miniature basic switches. Wide variety of actuators, terminations, circuitry configurations, electrical ratings, contact materials... (read more)

CPI's Waterproof system is developed around a basic snap action contact mechanism. Using our basic switch as the starting point, we have designed a full range of switching products for thousands of applications. Small, flat, and lightweight, CPI waterproof switches are designed to perform under severe environmental conditions, including total submersion. (read more)

CPl's SNAP-STAT thermal switches have a bimetal snap disc that actuates a miniature microswitch. This double snap action makes these switches virtually immune to shock and vibration. Epoxy sealing or glass-to-metal hermetic sealing makes them ideal for demanding industrial or military applications. (0-350F, wide differential) (read more)

These maintained basic switches are available in two grades: military and industrial. The military switches are encased in neoprene and meet or exceed all applicable government specifications. Two position maintained circuits, SPST and SPDT are offered. The oval actuator platform allows for installation behind panels and provides a panel seal. (read more)

Self cleaning contacts and protection against dust, humidity and polluting agents allow high reliability even at low contact load. In telecommunications and automation the S870 is used for switching low voltages and currents.

Its compact dimensions, protection class and special variants, e.g. with pre-assembled cable, make this switch suitable for a wide range of applications. (read more)

The Schaltbau S880 microswitch is recommended wherever reliable switching functions need to be implemented within a limited installation space. The V4 switch with positive opening operation has the same features as the large snap-action switches, but is only 6 mm wide. The S880 is designed for devices and machines in which safety functions need to be implemented. (read more)

The double break contact unites two safety switches in one compact housing. It is an elegant solution for control system constructors who want to increase the safety level without having to invest in additional hardware, installation or programming. (read more)
