5E /5G
The Multimec 5E and 5G series is the new generation
of the existing 3A, 3C, 3E, 3F, 4A and 4Fmultimec
switches. The 5E and 5G series is a narrower product
line, but the flexibility is more advanced. The switches
will be supplied in high temperature material only to
stand today’s advanced soldering processes. The
cap holding system is improved, by a superior snap
system.
The 5E and 5G series can be supplied with LED’s
integrated in the switch and also as a surface mount
switch. A high variety of aesthetic designed keycaps
is available for the multimec switches both as solid
caps, but also with excellent illumination possibilities.
The standard program will include three different
actuation forces: 2, 3.5, and 6.5N. The multimec
switches are known for their crisp audible tactile
feel although a quiet version is available for sensitive
applications such as audio, conference and military
equipment.
The switch can be used as through-hole or SMD
versions, and are designed to be used in a wide
variety of applications.

1A/1H/1M/1ZA
1A/1H/1M/1ZA series caps have a hinge-type
retention system which gives a rocker-action ac-
tuation when mounted on Multimec 5G switch.
Illumination can be provided with 1A in transpa-
rent colours or 1H with different colour lenses.
1A/1H, 1ZA and 1M caps offer three different di-
mensions, many solid and transparent colours as
well as lens colours. 1A has many legend options
in its standard offering; however, all caps can be
provided with custom legends.
*Letter legends on the picture are not standard

1B/1C cap and 2C/2D bezel series have a
award-winning design. The cap is connected to
the bezel with a hinge-type retention system and
the bezel snaps on to the switch.
The series provides many design options with its
solid and transparent colour range as well as dif-
ferent illumination option.
Illumination can be achieved by using 1B cap in
transparent colour, 1C cap with a lens or 2D be-
zel with a lens where LED is placed on the PCB.
