Ultranavimec™ is a simple and aesthetic navigational switch solution ideal for applications where space is limited, and environment is demanding. It has five positions: a select button in the middle and four navigational positions around it. The solution is compact and designed for optimal functionality with low-profile Ultramec switches giving the solution a distinct sound and fine tactile feel.Illumination is achieved with chip-LEDs on the PCB. Ultranavimec™ solution is mounted on Ultramec™ 6C series.Main featuresØ22.14 mmh=7.15 mmIP67500,000 activationsStandard cap colors: blue, grey, red, black, signal white and frosted whiteStandard legend options available

Ultramec™ is a whole new switch line from MEC. 6C is the first switch in the line. Ultramec™ 6C switch is a low profile switch with crisp sound and feel. It has IP67 sealing, 3 million cycles and pins for accurate mounting with the J-bend terminals. The switch is excellent for under overlay and custom caps as well as when space is limited.Caps that can be mounted on Ultramec™ 6C: 10GMain featuresh=2.5 mm8 x 8 mmMomentary NOIP67 sealing3,000,000 cyclesJ-bend

Single Switch Module is a module for a single Multimec™ switch and cap.Main featuresModule size: 22 x 37 mmStandard switch: Multimec™ 5G Switches mountable: 3A, 3E, 3C, 3F (non-illuminated), 4F, 5E and 5G

The Rockermec™ solution consists of two Multimec™ 5E switches, a sealing that also provides functionality and a rocker cap called 10A. Rockermec™ is a compact solution for your high design-in requirements: it has small dimensions, aesthetic design and it is sealed to IP67. Illumination is provided with LEDs on the PCB so you can pick the exact colors you want for your application, even RGB. Furthermore, solution is modular and therefore provides design consistency when multiple rockers are required with different need for cap print, color, and switch actuation force. Main features10.6 x 28 mmh=12.15Panel sealed to IP67Lifetime (Sealing): 500,000 cyclesStandard cap colors: grey, red, black and frosted whiteStandard legend options availableAvailable as a module

Navimec™ is a five position navigational switch solution ideal for data entry devices where joystick function is needed. It has a select switch in the middle and four navigational switches around it. The solution is available as a module as well as single parts for own PCB mounting. Illuminated version is also available. We recommend through-hole version due to increased accuracy during mounting of the switches.Navimec™ solution is mounted on Multimec™ 5G series.Main featuresØ34.25 mmStandard cap colors: grey, white, black, frosted white, ultra blue, dusty blue, aqua blue, metal dark blue, metal light grey, metal dark grey and metal bordeauxStandard legend options available

Multimec™ 3F series has an actuator extended out of the switch body and uses slide-on cap retention system. It also has a right angle version with an optional LED.Caps that can be mounted on Multimec™ 3F: 1D, 1E, 1F, 1GA, 1GC, 1K, 1KB, 1KC, 1N, 1P, 1Q, 1R, 1S, 1T, 1U, 1V, 1WA, 1WD, 1X and 1ZC.Main featuresh=10.4 mm10 x 10 mmMomentary NOIP67 sealing10,000,000 cycleSMD, TH or through-hole RASillumination possibility

Multimec™ 3E series switches have a hole in the switch body for mounting caps. This switch series is used for mounting Varimec™ caps. There are 2400 options in the Varimec™ range.Caps that can be mounted on Multimec™ 3E: Foilmec™ 1Y/1YA and Varimec™Main featuresh=6.4 mm10 x 10 mmMomentary NOIP67 sealing10,000,000 cyclesSMD, TH or through-hole RAS

Simplicity and reliability makes the Multimec™ 3C an excellent switch for build-in and over-mould solutions. In addition, the switch is great for overlay as it can still function even if the overlay breaks and an upgrade can be done by changing the overlay and not the PCB, which is very cost-effective.Main featuresh=6.4 mm10 x 10 mmMomentary NOIP67 sealing10,000,000 cyclesSMD, TH or through-hole RAS

Multimec™ 3A is for caps with hinges in order to imitate rocker-function switches. Because of this type of caps the travel of the 3A switch is 2 mm. Multimec™ 3A series has an actuator levelled with the switch body.Caps mounted on Multimec™ 3A: 1A, 1B+2C/2D, 1M, 1ZA and 1ZBMain featuresh=6.4 mm10 x 10 mmMomentary NOIP67 sealing10,000,000 cyclesTH or SMD

Multimec™ 5G switch has a large diameter snap-on cap retention system and an actuator levelled with the switch body. The switch series has 3 standard actuation forces and is only available in high temperature material in order to stand today´s advanced soldering processes. Furthermore, the switch can be supplied with one or two LEDs integrated on it in order to provide excellent illumination. Night vision (NVIS) LEDs are also available.Caps that fit Multimec™ 5G switches: 10AQS+AQW, 1A, 1B+2C/2D, 1DS, 1ES, 1FS, 1GAS, 1GCS, 1H, 1IS, 1JS, 1KS, 1KBS, 1KCS, 1LS, 1M, 1NS, 1PS, 1QS, 1RS, 1SS, 1TS, 1US, 1VS, 1WAS, 1WDS, 1WPS, 1XS, 1ZA, 1ZB, 1ZCS, 1Z, 1ZW, 10D+10DWY, 10R, 10RF, 10RM, 10Q, 10QM, 10C, Aquamec™ and Designmec.Main featuresh=6.4 mm10 x 10 mmMomentaryNO or NC/NO (NC/NO function is not sold in Japan)IP67 sealing10,000,000 cyclesSMD, TH or through-hole RASillumination possibility
