EAO Introduces New Vandal-Resistant Pushbuttons


Milford, CT - EAO Switch Corporation of Milford, CT USA, a premier global supplier of Human Machine Interface (HMI) Systems and Components, introduces its R Series pushbuttons, a new selection of products that improve the design and durability of control panels. Flush mounting and metal construction make this series vandal-resistant and also easy to clean.

R Series pushbuttons are made of durable stainless steel for use in aggressive environments, such as ticketing machines, vending machines, and access control panels. These pushbuttons meet IP65 international standard for outside use, and offer a mechanical service life of 1,000,000 operations within an operating temperature of -20°C to +70°C.

The R Series is available in 16mm and 19mm varieties. The 19mm pushbuttons incorporate LED illumination as either a halo ring or central dot.
