Manual Soldering: See Profile A in Supplement section.. Cleaning: These devices are not process sealed. Hand clean locally using alcohol based solution. Standards & Certifications Flammability Standards: UL94V-0 actuator & case/base The GW Series rockers have not been tested for UL recognition or CSA certification. These switches are designed for use in a low-voltage, low-current, logic-level circuit. When used as intended in a logic-level circuit, the results do not produce hazardous energy.

Combination of dust cover and closely fit housing, actuator, and interior pivot provides protection for contacts. Detent mechanism design of coil spring, plunger, and plastic detent results in crisp and positive actuation. Extremely thin size allows high density PCB mounting and makes these switches ideal for handheld equipment. Award-winning STC contact mechanism with benefits unavailable in conventional mechanisms: smoother, positive detent actuation, increased contact stability and unparalleled logic-level reliability. (Additional STC details in Terms & Acronyms see Supplement section.) Molded-in, epoxy sealed terminals lock out flux and other contaminants100 x .100 (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal spacing conforms to standard PC board grid spacing for straight and angle mounting.
