Process Sealed Keylocks
Series SK
Distinctive Characteristics
Sealed body construction plus disposable boot protect contacts
and allow automated processing.
Molded-in terminals seal out flux, solvents, and
other contaminants.
Short body size for space-saving, behind panel
dimensions.
Detent mechanism, with its spring-operated
steel ball, gives crisp, positive action for
accurate switch setting.
Bifurcated, self-wiping contact mechanism
provides unequalled logic-level reliability
and smoother, positive detent actuation.
Crimped bracket legs ensure secure PCB
mounting and prevent dislodging during
automated wave soldering.
.100” x .100” (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal
spacing conforms to standard PC board grid
spacing.
