Switches, Relays & Keypads


Highly reliable tactile switch

31 January 2017 Switches, Relays & Keypads

MEC Switches is launching a new PCB switch series called Ultramec. The first one out of the pipeline is Ultramec 6C, a switch with high specifications wrapped in a small package. The new switch has smaller dimensions than the previous range of Multimec switches and significantly lower height of 2,5 mm. Due to J-bend terminals it is excellent for handheld devices or applications with limited space and height.

With IP67 sealing and a long lifetime of three million cycles, Ultramec 6C can be relied upon in demanding environments and the soft actuator guarantees that there is no rattling noise when the product gets shaken. The simple design with crisp feel and sound also makes the switch a good option for under overlay solutions.

In addition, a specially designed 11,0 mm round concave keycap is available. Due to the floating cap, matching the front panel and PCB is easy. Furthermore, the floating cap concept makes the low-profile switch excellent for custom caps.
