MERP 12 encoders feature an LED illuminated actuator which can be single or multi-coloured and can be specified with or without a pushbutton action.
Terry Moss, General Sales manager for knitter-switch UK comments, “Our new illuminated rotary encoders are particularly suited to broadcast and professional audio applications where ambient lighting may be low and different coloured illumination can add to ease of use and reduce costly operational errors. This can also be a great benefit in industrial applications. Rotary encoders are rapidly replacing conventional analogue potentiometers as demand increases for additional functionality in digital control of signals and menus.”
knitter-switch MERP12 encoder switch contacts are rated at 5VDC @ 10mA, have a typical lifetime of 30,000 operations, an operating temperature range of –40 to +85°C and may be single hope or PCB mounted.
knitter-switch is recognised for the quality of design and manufacture inherent in its products its switches are used in applications that demand a reliable, trouble-free switch with a long mechanical life.
