Vents and panels access shielded enclosures
A comprehensive range of attenuation vents and EMC screened viewing panels are used on shielded enclosures where there is a need for either convectional or forced-air cooling.
Both aesthetically pleasing and functional, the rockers have a highly tactile, soft-touch actuation and are available in either black or blue with legends that cover most of the common functions likely to be required such as 'pumps', 'showers', 'lights' and 'wipers'.
Both switches and breakers can be specified with blue or yellow LED illumination and the switches can be provided with dim illumination when circuit is off and bright when active.
The switches are available in two and three position, either momentary or latching.
Although in most applications the integration of circuit breaker and function switch will simplify panel design, switches without the breaker facility can also be supplied.
The Series 3131 meets the requirements of circuit breaker standard EN 60934 and is sealed to IP66 rated front of panel splash protection.
Voltage rating is 24V AC or 28V DC with a current capability of up to 20A.
The operating temperature range is -20 to +60 deg C and lifetime is 30,000 operations.
