The MEC 3FTH920 IP67 Green Tactile Switch Side Cap is a robust electronic component designed for reliable operation in industrial and commercial applications. With its SPST (single-pole single-throw) configuration and momentary switching action, it provides tactile feedback for user input and control interfaces.
This switch features a green side cap actuator, clearly distinguishing operational status and enhancing visual recognition in control panels. The terminal style is intended for mounting directly onto PCBs, making installation both fast and secure.
Rated at 50mA for 24V DC, the MEC 3FTH920 ensures reliable performance for low-voltage switching, suitable for control, signal, and interface circuits. Its IP67 rating signifies complete protection against dust and high resistance to water immersion, making it ideal for demanding environments such as industrial machinery, laboratory equipment, instrumentation, and outdoor electronics.
The switch boasts a mechanical life of 10 million operations, guaranteeing long-term durability. Its compact size, with a length of 12.5 mm, width of 10.4 mm, and height of 10 mm, allows for space-efficient designs in densely-populated PCB layouts. The operating force of 3.5N delivers a crisp tactile response appreciated in high-performance control systems.
Operating reliably across a wide temperature range (-40°C to 160°C), the switch is suited for both high-temperature industrial settings and subzero outdoor installations. The illuminated actuator allows for enhanced visibility, and RoHS compliance ensures the product meets strict environmental standards.
Typical uses include panel controls, industrial automation interfaces, instrumentation panels, laboratory equipment, and commercial products requiring frequent actuation and high ingress protection. Suitable for PCB mount assembly in electronics manufacturing, automation, medical devices, HVAC controls, and water treatment equipment.
The MEC brand is renowned for quality switches, and the 3FTH920 model is a trusted choice for engineers seeking dependable tactile input with robust environmental protection. For more Switches and interface solutions, browse the EnvMart electronics & electricals category.
