Staco Systems, a design and manufacturing company, has introduced a new, low-cost 4-pole double-throw (4PDT) switching product line, the S100, designed to meet the demands of aerospace, commercial, avionics, military, and maritime applications.

Similar to Staco System's successful series 90 switch line, the new S100 provides reliability, NVIS compatibility, sunlight readability, High Bright (HB) LED illumination, water-tight sealing, and voltage dimming. The benefits of the S100 product line are its 4PDT configuration, uniform lighting, low surface temperature, and longer actuation life than any other switch currently on the market.

"We are excited about the addition of the S100 to our existing product line of rugged duty lighted pushbutton switches", said Jason Childs, VP of Sales and Marketing.  "We've been perfecting the design of this switch to meet the most stringent requirements while reducing costs and providing a great value to our customers."

Staco Systems showcased the S100 at the Farnborough International Airshow in the United Kingdom July 14th-20th and received positive feedback from several industry leaders.

This product line meets or exceeds all applicable MIL-PRF-22885 requirements. It is specifically qualified to the requirements of MIL-STD-3009 and MIL-L-85762.
