Standards & Certifications
Supplement
Accessories
The DB Series pushbuttons have not been tested for UL recognition or CSA certification.
These switches are designed for use in low-voltage, low-current, logic-level circuit.
When used as intended in a logic-level circuit, the results do not produce hazardous energy.

Choice of cap sizes in .315” (8.0mm) and .394” (10.0mm)
diameter cap design for simple, snap-on installation.
High torque bushing prevents rotation and separation
from metal frame during installation.
Stainless steel frame resists corrosion.
.100” x .100” (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal spacing
conforms to standard PC board grid spacing. Round
terminals for easier through-hole mounting on PC boards.

Molded-in terminals prevent entry of solder flux,
dust, and other contaminants.
Rotaries
Snap action contacts give smooth actuation, short
stroke, light touch, and audible feedback. This
mechanism also provides long mechanical life.
