This Product Selection Guide contains information to help select products in the Configurable Switch Components - Body category on DigiKey.com
Configurable switches are modular electromechanical switch systems that allow users to assemble a switch to suit their specific needs. The “body” components for such systems typically house the actuating mechanism for a device and the means by which an assembled unit is mounted mechanically in the end application, and occasionally an illumination mechanism, if present. The actuator surface with which a user interacts is often incorporated with a body component, but may also be sold separately. Products of this sort are well-adapted for industrial control applications.
