with internal o-ring seal. SA surface mount: High temperature
material, glass filled LCP (UL 94V-0).
SWITCH SUPPORT: Brass, matte-tin plated.
CONTACTS & TERMINALS: B contact material: Copper alloy,
with gold plate over nickel plate. See page A-13 for additional
contact materials.
TERMINAL SEAL: Epoxy.
NOTE: Any models supplied with Q, B, P, S, R or G contact material are RoHS compliant.
NOTE: Specifications and materials listed above are for switches with standard options.
For information on specific and custom switches, consult Customer Service Center.
CAUTION: PC mounting layouts and pads as shown are designed to be compatible with the
latest equipment and reflow techniques. Care should be taken in the design and location of
PC lands to suit individual needs. Orientation relative to reflow direction may significantly
impact solder joint integrity.
Build-A-Switch
