Switches, Relays & Keypads


Combined switch and circuit breaker has benefits

1 November 2006 Switches, Relays & Keypads

The new E-T-A series 3131 is a unique combination of an attractively-designed switch with overload protection. Its contoured soft-touch rocker actuator provides a smooth and gentle switching action and a choice of different types and options ensures flexibility.

Integral overload protection avoids the need for fuse holders or additional circuit breakers. This reduces panel space required and facilitates a creative approach to switch panel design, at the same time as providing improved user convenience. IP66-rated integral water splash protection helps to make the series 3131 a good choice for marine applications, including where extreme environmental conditions are present, whilst various actuator styles, symbols and illumination options provide a range of choice.

In addition to replacing fuses and reducing components and wiring, the Series 3131's snap-in design ensures easy installation. A 3-position switch-only variant completes the range of options available.
