Santa Rosa, California, September 1st, 2023 – SCHURTER extends its popular momentary pushbutton switch series MSM to include the newest addition, the MSM II. The MSM Metal Line switch family has been successfully used on the market for over 30 years, which is attributed to its durability, precision, and overall high quality. The new generation MSM II stands out even more as it builds on these traits while adding more features.
Available in 16, 19, 22 & 30 mm mounting diameters, the original MSM pushbutton with microswitch for switching currents from 100 mA to 10 A is now complemented by the new generation MSM II, which sports a subminiature microswitch. The new microswitch provides a shallower mounting depth for switching currents from 100 mA to 3 A for SPDT as well as DPDT circuits. In addition to its enhanced design, the MSM II features increased ESD resistance (contact: ± 8kV; air: ± 15kV), increased impact resistance IK 08, and an even wider temperature range from -30 °C to +85 °C.
User interface is a growing topic when it comes to equipment aesthetics and safe operation. The MSM family has remained successful due to its wide selection of elegant options as well as unrivaled haptic and optical feedback quality. Lighting options include ring, point, or surface area. Choose between single color or RGB, which allows for individual settings and light scenes. All lighted versions are available for a supply voltage of 5, 12, or 24 VDC.
Pricing for the MSM II starts at $10 in 100-piece quantities for the 16 mm version. The switches are packaged in boxes of 10 pieces each. Link to MSM II datasheet. Link to Landing Page. For sales and product information, contact Savannah Lee at (800) 848-2600 or by email at info.sinc@schurter.com.
