Wesgarde, a national expert in the distribution of electromechanical and electronic power components, is proud to highlight the CIT Relay & Switch AH Series, an illuminated anti-vandal pushbutton engineered for reliability and design flexibility. With a standard 19mm panel cut-out size, the AH Series fits seamlessly into common design specifications, supporting straightforward integration and replacement. Designed for food processing equipment and facilities, the AH Series stands out with an array of features and tangible user benefits, making it an indispensable component for next-generation control panels used in processing machinery, conveyor systems, and automated packaging lines.
The AH Series is available in momentary or latching configurations, allowing for a broad spectrum of installations where either quick contact or maintained activation is essential. The flush actuator comes in both non illuminated and illuminated styles, for a variety of visibility needs.
Offering LED illumination in red, yellow, green, blue, white, and orange, the AH Series allows for clear visual feedback, status indication, and enhanced branding. Designers benefit from a range of finish options, including stainless steel SUS 304 or SUS 316L, as well as anodized aluminum in black, green, red, blue, or yellow. The series offers customizable epoxy convex actuators and supports custom laser etching and logo integration for unique project requirements. Custom shine-through symbols are available, providing additional branding and user functionality.
Simplified installation and secure connections are assured with choices of quick connect tabs, screw terminals, and fully sealed wire assemblies. The AH Series ensures durability due to its vandal proof design and IP67 sealing degree, providing resistance to dust and water intrusion for demanding environments commonly encountered in OEM and equipment manufacturing. Fully sealed wire assembly options ensure reliable performance in wet and dusty environments, streamlining field installation and long-term system reliability.
With ratings up to 20A at 12VDC and 10A at 125VAC, these components are built to handle demanding applications. A resilient operational lifespan of up to 50,000 cycles reduces maintenance frequency and lowers replacement costs. Gold over silver contacts ensure excellent conductivity and wear resistance, while a wide operating temperature range, from -40°F to 185°F, supports consistent functionality in extreme environments. Polycarbonate LED lenses and switch bodies increase impact resistance and overall robustness.
Designed for maximum configurability, the AH Series allows users to customize every detail, including actuator style, surface finish, illumination color, and termination type, delivering a tailored solution for virtually any control system. For more information, please visit: www.citrelay.com.
