Microswitches with an optional integrated LED indicator light have been introduced by Microprecision Electronics. The MP100/200 series microswitches with integrated LED status indicator have been designed for use at 24V in industrial automation applications.

Microprecision’s longer M6 thread 3mm CDLB series panel LED enables customers to design panels with 3mm LEDs to their own specifications, eliminating the need to change to larger LEDs to fit thick panels. The CDLB series mounts in panels up to 8mm in thickness- even when supplied with the optional washer for IP67 sealing. The front mount nickel-plated housing has a prominent bezel shape with a protruded LED.

The MP600 series of mechanical sensors from Microprecision is designed to detect two positions within one single product. The distance between the two positions can be customised to the user’s application between 0.3mm and 1.5mm. The fixed NC and NO contacts activate with no measurable hysteresis.

  A subsidiary of Microprecision Electronics SA, Wilbrecht LEDCO, has introduced its new 14mm mount CL series panel LED for industrial and outdoor applications. The CL series incorporates a 10mm LED available in red, green, yellow, blue and bicolour options. Pre-wired with internal resistors, the indicators can be configured for voltages up to 60VDC or 120/240VAC.

A long body nikel-plated mount LED has been introduced by Microprecision Electronics SA. The housing is designed to easily fit panel thicknesses of up to 9.0mm even with additional washer.

Expanding the possibilities of its sealed limit switches, Microprecision Electronics has announced that the MP700 series are now available with an M12 connector integrated directly into the housing. Enabling the connection of limit switches as sensing devices to industrial bus systems, this feature allows for a simple and detachable cable connection as an alternative to the common potted cable solution. Standard M12 connection cables are broadly ...

Numerous process control applications depend on pressure switches to operate reliably. To convert a physical pressure differential into an electrical signal, a mechanical switch is used. Microprecision Electronics is now offering a new variation of its MP500 sealed subminiature micro switch for this type of application. While the standard version has an actuating force of 2.5N, the MP520 has a lower actuating force of 1N. 

Wilbrecht LEDCO a subsidiary of Microprecision Electronics, is pleased to introduce a solder lug/faston terminated version of its popular ruggedised IP67 sealed rear mount CRM series panel LED. The unique rear mount design features fast pitch threads and special nuts for quick installation in extreme and outdoor applications.

Wilbrecht LEDCO, a subsidiary of Microprecision Electronics, has become a member of the ECIA (Electronic Components Industry Association).

For easy identification, Microprecision Electronics' Wilbrecht LEDCO division has added symbol marking options to it's 100/600 series of panel LEDs. These symbols include both custom and universal, such as battery light or oil level, and are printed as a pictogram or short word in white or black ink on blue, green, amber, red and clear lenses. 

Microprecision Electronics SA is announcing a new certification “UL 61058” for its snap action microswitches. UL introduced the new norm to test appliance switches (previously under UL1054). By mid-2015 new products have to comply to UL61058.

Microprecision is introducing a variation of its industrial high current switches of the MP200 series. The new MP220 has a single pole double break electrical circuit, which allows to double break two independent electrical circuits up to 10A/250VAC. The MP220 uses a fast snap action mechanism to change from break to make position. The switch in its standard version is currently IP67 sealed, an improved sealing for IP68 applications with a streng...

Microprecision Electronics introduces bipolar LEDs in its range of panel mount LED’s in varied housing styles for front or rear panel mounting in response to international demand. The pre-wired assembly of a red, green or yellow bipolar LED and a resistor will work directly off a 120 VAC or 240 VAC line as a LED power indicator or as a drop-in replacement for neon indicators.

Microprecision Electronics SA has today announced that it is adding surface mount precision foil resistors to its product line. Through its subsidiary Wilbrecht LEDCO, Microprecision, has been a manufacturer of precision Bulk Metal Foil resistors based on Vishay Precision Group technology for over 15 years. Microprecision is responding to the growing demand for surface-mount products by making models VSM and VSMP (Z-Foil) available to its custome...
