RAFI USA (Lynnwood, WA) has expanded its low-profile, modular control component family. The advanced RAFIX 22 FS+ control component series offers a modern and variable design concept that enables designers to individually adapt control components to customize a control panel. The 9.2mm behind-the-panel depth for the activation elements enables slender product casing solutions. The RAFIX FS 22+ product line includes:

  • Ring illumination options in a broad range of colors.
  • A tactile version that offers more precise haptic responses.
  • Illuminated and non-illuminated push-buttons, rotary selectors, keylocks, and E-stop pushbuttons.
  • Signal indicators, potentiometer actuators, and robust USB feed-throughs.
  • A minimum IP65 protection.
  • Special tactile feedback available for applications with specific haptic requirements like those where operators wear gloves.
  • All actuating elements in this series interchangeable with series switching elements.
  • Round or square actuator shapes with interchangeable front rings available in various colors and with different surfaces.
  • Actuators can be ideally combined with other electronic components, as well as with short-travel key switches, on a shared PCB.
  • 3 mm THT LEDs or SMT LEDs that can be used for the homogeneous illumination of control components.
  • Lamps and PCB contact blocks are set onto the base PCB.
  • PCB contact blocks available with gold contacts for low voltages of 5 V to 35 V, or with silver contacts for voltages up to a maximum of 250 V.
