PCB Processing
Soldering: Wave Soldering Recommended. See Profile A in Supplement section.
Manual Soldering: for single pole see Profile B in Supplement section; for double pole see Profile A.
Cleaning: These devices are not process sealed. Hand clean locally using alcohol based solution.
Standards & Certifications
The A Series slides have not been tested for UL recognition or CSA certification.
These switches are designed for use in a low-voltage, low-current, logic-level circuit.
When used as intended in a logic-level circuit, the results do not produce hazardous energy.

Distinctive Characteristics
Pushbuttons
Subminiature size (1/3 size of Series M switches) saves space on PC boards.
Programmable Illuminated PB
Specifically developed for logic-level applications.
Keylocks
Award-winning STC contact mechanism with benefits
unavailable in conventional mechanisms: smoother,
positive detent actuation, increased contact
stability and unparalleled logic-level reliability.
(Additional STC details in Terms & Acronyms;
see Supplement section.)
Available in various actuator lengths.
H
Tactiles
Molded-in, epoxy sealed or ultrasonically
welded terminals lock out flux, solvents,
and other contaminants.
Slides
Rotaries
Antistatic superstructure of carbon
blended polyacetal prevents static
discharge to the contacts.
Tilt
.100” x .100” (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal
spacing conforms to standard PC board grid
spacing.
Touch
Matching indicators available.
