EAO reacts to regulations for visually impaired

EAO has introduced a new black-and-white double On/Off switch to the range of economically-priced Series 44 industrial controls. This product features a large, illuminated central lens to indicate the status of equipment. It can be supplied with or without the engraved ‘I and 0’ symbols, and with either a matt grey or chromium-plated case.

It is intended for use wherever there is an On/Off function, particularly within the machinery and process control sectors, where manufacturers should replace the red/green versions to comply with new regulations for visually-impaired users; these regulations govern the use of equipment by those who may find it difficult to distinguish between red and green On/Off positions.

This product is offered with a self-cleaning, slow make switching element and lamp block; illumination is provided by either LEDs or Ba9 lamps.

EAO also offers a similar switch in a red/green combination. Other economically-priced control switches from the Series 44 range including pushbuttons, indicators, selectors, mushroom-headed switches, potentiometer drives and Emergency- stops.

All products use screw terminal connections and are sealed to IP65.
