CIT capacitive touch anti-vandal pushbuttons

The TH Capacitive Touch Anti-Vandal switch is offered in 16, 19, 22 or 25mm and is available with 30-Second Hold, Momentary Switch or a Latching Switch mounting options.

A touch-controlled capacitive switch operates by measuring change in capacitance when depressed. When touched, the electrical charge disrupts the switch's own electrical charge, causing a change in capacitance.

The CIT Relay & Switch capacitive touch TH Series is ideally suited for use in vending machines, gated community guard houses, traffic controls, industrial controls, appliances, infotainment centres and more.

CIT’s TH Series Capacitive Touch Switch is available with a flush illuminated actuator with two ring size options, each with a brushed stainless-steel finish. The TH’s actuator is made of stainless steel with a Polycarbonate (PC) LED Lens. The 16 and 19mm versions are available with a thick illuminated ring, the 25mm is available with a thick illuminated ring and the 22mm is available in both styles.

Most come with a standard bezel, the 16mm comes in a 4.5mm-high bezel.
