Apem Capacitive / Piezo Switches for Health-Related Applications

Capacitive switches for underlay applications
Activated by the touch of a finger, CG series switches are designed for mounting under a non-conductive front face (glass or polycarbonate) and are activated though the front face, transforming the inert facial into an active interface. Available in momentary or latching, they are perfectly adapted for interactive applications.

Capacitive switches
Available with diameter 16, 19 or 22 mm bushing, CP series sensory switches are extremely easy to use and ideal for repetitive applications (no operating force). Their IK10 robustness and unlimited life are perfect for self-service applications.

Capacitive switches for applications where reliability is key
Totally sealed (IP68 and IP69K), the PBA range is perfectly suited for humid environments (yachting, spa, swimming pools…) or for sectors requiring a regular cleaning of control panels (medical, food industry…). The PBA 30 mm series will also be appreciated in access control applications for its long life and good visibility. he illuminated ring is offered in 2 versions: flush or prominent. The prominent version, exclusively available on this new series, combines innovative design and increased visibility.
Translucent or colored, the illuminated ring is available in single color, bi-color and tri-color versions.
