Back mounting switch - IZ Series
Distinctive features
The IZ series is a rear mounted pushbutton, available with a polyamide or a metal case. This product has been designed to reduce the assembly cost in 2 application types : wave soldering and when using a connector. The IZ series allows flush panel mounting and makes dismounting easier.

1. WAVE SOLDERING
This is possible thanks to the straight PC terminal
option and the rear mounting feature. With a
standard front mounting version, a manual soldering
operation or a flying lead pushbutton are required.

2. QUICKER ASSEMBLY WITH A
CONNECTOR
APEM’s engineering expertise and vertical
integration have naturally led to develop specific
switches and sub-assemblies to customer
specifications. For instance, all types of
connectors can be added in-house to all existing
switches, to simplify final assembly.

The IZ series is recommended when the panel hole dimension is smaller than the connector dimension. The customer saves time by mounting the pushbutton in the panel without removing the connector.
3. FLUSH MOUNTING
The IZ series is the first pushbutton within the « I » range allowing flush mounting. Especially the metal case bushing is available in 2 versions : one for fixed panel thickness (option N) and the other for variable panel thickness (option M).
4. EASIER DISMOUNTING
The IZ series of sealed pushbutton switches comprises 2 product families :
- polyamide models, momentary or latching action
- Metal models, currently available only in latching.
