Series 71.
Unique PCB mounting system.
Unique printed circuit board (PCB) assembly makes Series 71 versatile for your applications in machine and control cabinet construction. You can configure the series in a modular way.
The Series 71 can do this.
Series 71 offers you a choice of flush-mounted buttons with tactile feedback, a high protection degree, and contact elements that you can mount on any printed circuit board (PCB). In addition, you benefit from flush-mounted construction and modern design.
The square, rectangular or round pushbuttons with large illuminated area for text and symbol labelling and bright LED illumination make it easy to design intuitive operating units.
Typical application areas
- Machinery and control systems
- Control cabinet engineering
- Special vehicles
- Conveyor systems
- Process automation
- And many other applications
You can combine the pushbuttons, illuminated pushbuttons, key-insert switches, selector switches and indicators however you wish on the same PCB level. You can connect the PCB and the attachment to the front panel quickly, easily and without spacer bolts using a locking pin.
