Accessories
The G Series toggles have not been tested for UL recognition or CSA certification.
These switches are designed for use in a low-voltage, low-current, logic-level circuit.
When used as intended in a logic-level circuit, the results do not produce hazardous energy.

Distinctive
Characteristics
Fully illuminated toggle for highly visible status indication with LED in red,
green, or amber for single color and red/green for bicolor.
Ultra-miniature size allows high density mounting, and extremely
light weight makes these switches ideal for handheld equipment.
Totally sealed body construction prevents contact
contamination and allows time- and money-saving
automated soldering and cleaning.
Molded-in, epoxy sealed terminals lock out flux,
solvents, and other contaminants.
Award-winning STC contact mechanism with
benefits unavailable in conventional mech-
anisms: smooth, positive detent actuation,
increased contact stability, and unparalleled
logic-level reliability. (Additional STC details
in Terms & Acronyms; see Supplement section.)
.100” x .100” (2.54mm x 2.54mm) terminal
spacing conforms to standard PC board grid
spacing. Round terminals facilitate easier through-
hole mounting on PC boards.

LED COLORS & SPECIFICATIONS
Single Color
LEDs are an integral part of the switch
and not available separately. The
electrical specifications shown are
determined at a basic temperature of
25°C.
If the source voltage exceeds the rated
voltage, a ballast resistor is required.
The resistor value can be calculated by
using the formula in the Supplement;
see Supplement Index.
