DESCRIPTION
Honeywell MICRO SWITCH TW Series toggle switches are
military qualified to MIL-83731 specifications for sealed
and unsealed toggle switches. Quality construction features
include an available bonded seal between the toggle lever and
bushing for those applications where a sealing-related failure
cannot be tolerated.
The durable design of the TW Series toggle is well-suited for
many military, aerospace and other demanding applications
where space behind the panel is limited. These applications
include environments where the panels are subjected to
mechanical shock, vibration, dust, splashing or hose-directed
water, and temperature extremes.
MICRO SWITCH TW toggles feature a miniature military-
grade design with environmental sealing capabilities and can
be configured with a large selection of circuitries, electrical
terminations, lever and bushing designs, and contact material
options to satisfy a diverse range of applications.
