J16-E 16 mm Metal Key Switches — Short-Body Anti-Vandal Stainless Steel

J16-E key switches lock a function behind a key in a Ø16 mm panel cut-out (M16×1 thread). The "-E" housing is shortened for shallow panels while keeping the full 1NO+1NC or 2NO+2NC contact block. Four versions cover 2- and 3-position operation, each either spring-return (key returns to centre) or maintained (stays where turned). Protection is IP40 with IK10 impact resistance.

Spring-return keys give a momentary keyed command; maintained keys keep a mode selected until turned back.
