Ultra-Miniature Fully Illuminated Plungers Series GB Distinctive Characteristics Fully illuminated plunger for highly visible status indication with single color LED in red, green, or amber. Ultra-miniature size allows high density mounting, and extremely light weight makes these switches ideal for handheld equipment. Totally sealed body construction prevents contact contamination and allows time- and money-saving automated soldering and cleaning. Insert-molded terminals lock out flux, solvents, and other contaminants. Award-winning STC contact mechanism with benefits unavailable in conventional mechanisms: smooth, positive detent actuation, increased contact stability, and unparalleled logic-level reliability. (Additional STC details in Terms & Acronyms; see Supplement section.) .100” x .100” (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal spacing conforms to standard PC board grid spacing. Round terminals facilitate easier through-hole mounting on PC boards. Nonilluminated pushbuttons available and shown in the Pushbutton section.

See Profile A in Supplement section. Manual Soldering: See Profile A in Supplement section. Cleaning: Automated alcohol based cleaning recommended, 5 minutes maximum. Do not use high-purity alcohol (50% alcohol or more) or organic solvent. High alcohol solution can damage clear plastic. See Cleaning specifications in Supplement section. Standards & Certifications UL Recognition or CSA Certification: The GB Series illuminated pushbuttons 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.
