General Notes
The series 31 illuminated pushbuttons are equipped with snap-action
or low-level switching elements.
Besides the standard contacts (gold-plated silver) silver contacts for
switching elements 2.8 mm plug-in terminals can be supplied on re-
quest.
The front dimensions of these units are 18 x 24 mm or 18 mm dia.
In addition to a number of illuminated pushbuttons, the customer can
choose from a range of other units and accessories having the same
front and mounting dimensions: indicators, flashers, buzzers, etc.
(For keylock switches see series 51 or 61.)

Mounting
Mount from the front through the mounting hole.
The universal terminals of the low-level switching elements permit
mounting on printed circuit boards (PCB).
These terminals are also suitable for dip soldering. For these termi-
nals we can also supply a plug-in base which, when soldered on to
the board, enables the switch to be plugged in. All rectangular swit-
ches, as well as the square and round keylock switches are secured
against rotation.

Lenses
The flat or concave lenses, made of polymethyl methacrylate, are
available in various colours, as well as translucent or transparent.
Marking
For engravings, hot stamping and film inserts, see under “Marking”
on page 58.
Illumination
Perfect illumination of the different coloured lenses is assured by mid-
get-grooved lamps T 1 3/4 (6-60 V).
For supply voltages above 60 V, it is necessary to use a voltage re-
duction element (external series resistor, capacitor or transformer).
Do not solder the terminals directly, because of the high surface tem-
perature.
Multi-LED midget-grooved lamps T 1 3/4 (6, 12, 24, 48 V) are availa-
ble in the colours red, white, yellow and green.
Position Indication
When a switch with maintained action is actuated, the lens remains
in the depressed position mechanically. The state of the switch is ap-
parent at all times from the position of the lens.
All dimensions in mm.
