Keyed switches provide secure control of electrical circuits by requiring a key to operate. They prevent unauthorized use and help ensure deliberate actuation. Function and operation: available in two position on/off and multiposition variants. Latching versions stay in the chosen state after removal of the key; momentary variants reset when released. Security and control: key lock prevents tampering and unauthorized power cycling, improving equipment uptime and safety. Compatibility and installation: panel mount in standard cutouts; suitable for common control voltages in industrial equipment; supports multiple terminal styles such as screw terminals, solder lugs, or plugin connectors. Size and materials: compact form factor for tight panel spaces; metal or reinforced plastic housings with durable finishes for corrosion resistance. Performance: reliable switching with low contact resistance and good mechanical life for repeated use. Applications: • Industrial control panels and safety interlocks • Vending machines, kiosks, and restrictedaccess devices • Security cabinets, server racks, and utility enclosures Note: verify the exact voltage, current rating, and mechanical life from the product datasheet to match your specific use case.
