This eliminates the need for extra switches on the device and additional openings in the overlay. In this way, you can achieve an optimum of safety and a consistent design. The contact opening widths comply with the VDE standards. The KN 19 can also be employed underneath RK 90 keycaps. Other actuation functions (momentary, latching/momentary) available on request.
