Boat builders are switching to EAO

A complete range of specialised switches and innovative control systems for marine applications are available from EAO – the expert in Human Machine Interfaces.

Swiss quality and precision engineering come together in a world-class range of standard products which includes illuminated pushbuttons and indicators, keylocks, selector switches, joysticks, membrane controls and emergency-stops. They are suitable for virtually every type of application within a vessel: navigation controls, bridge communication, lighting, passenger access, power distribution and security among others.

Modularity is at the heart of EAO’s product design. HMI components are available in a choice of materials including stainless steel and aluminium and a range of shapes, mounting styles and colours. There’s a comprehensive choice of accessories for all EAO series. Combinations can be tailored precisely to the application. For example, a pushbutton used on deck can be fitted with stainless steel housing and covered with a silicone lens cap for extra resistance to saline erosion. IP67- and IP68-rated switches are available.

For customers requiring a complete HMI system, EAO develops unique interfaces and control panels that are supplied fully wired for integration within a larger system.

Whether a luxury yacht or ship builder, an electrical supplier or panel builder, or a specialised distributor to the marine industry, EAO can supply the most appropriate components and integrated switching systems.
