All metal Keyswitch with NO (Normally Open) contact block

10/17/2008 10:08 AM

Can someone recommend to me a Keyswitch that will be used in a gamma radio active environment? Contact blocks should be made of ceramic or bakelite insulation. Thanks. (24VDC, ~1A)

I hope you have a good supply of grad students or interns to turn the key for you.

These switches can be made. However, give all properties of the switch, quantity and your budget.
