Microswitches with an optional integrated LED indicator light have been introduced by Microprecision Electronics. The MP100/200 series microswitches with integrated LED status indicator have been designed for use at 24V in industrial automation applications.

Now available in Europe through TTI is the compact Energy Harvester SPGA Series from Alps Electric Europe. The SPGA Series is a compact power-generating device employing electromagnetic induction to generate power with each push or release. Combined with external low-power wireless technology, the device can function as a switch.

The IDEC CW range of pushbutton switches, pilot lights, selector and key switches are available at Foremost Electronics in an ergonomic, modern and complementary design. With a standard bushing of 22mm and many customisation possibilities, each product benefits from 50 years of experience to create the latest IDEC range of 22mm industrial switches which incorporate the latest technologies and modern design with CE, UL and CCC recognition.

Human machine interface controls and components provider, RAFI, has expanded its RAMO Series product offering to include emergency stop switches (E-Stop) for rugged applications. The RAMO Series pushbutton control components feature fully enclosed mono-housings with ingress protections of IP65, IP67 and IP69K, and standard M12 plug and play connectors.

Now available from specialist distributor of electronic components, TTI, the new IP67-sealed model in the C&K K12S Series of switches is suitable for outdoor applications such as automotive door locks, boot openers, motorcycle handles and similar harsh environment uses including agricultural machinery and vehicles and off-road transportation.

Specialist in high-reliability connectors, C&K, has announced an expansive switch portfolio for designers of games controllers and gaming accessories.
