12mm Piezo Metal Push Button Switch

  • Easy to clean metal surface
  • Long life (50 million cycles)
  • Sealed to IP68 or IP69K (switch mounted on panel)

Advantages

Langir piezo metal push button switch is based on a solid-state output allowing for a very long life expectancy (more than 50 millions cycles), ideal for demanding applications where reliability is most important. The flat actuation surface is completely closed, preventing the intrusion of liquids or other contaminants, perfect for surface cleaning required in the medical and food-processing industries. High performance sealing (IP68 and IP69K) is achieved due to the one-piece construction of the switch. No external power supply is required. The screw-machined metal housing construction and Langir’s vertical integration allow for the manufacture of a variety of shapes.

FAQs

The 12mm piezo push button switch uses piezoelectric technology that generates an electrical signal when pressing its metal actuator surface. Unlike traditional mechanical switches, it has no moving parts, providing a momentary contact closure with exceptional durability and reliability.

IP68 means the switch is completely dust-tight and can withstand continuous immersion in water. IP69K indicates it resists high-pressure, high-temperature water jets from multiple angles. Together, these certifications ensure the switch performs reliably in harsh industrial and sanitary environments.

Langir’s switch housings are primarily constructed from corrosion-resistant Stainless Steel 316L or anodized Aluminum 6061 T651, offering excellent mechanical strength, anti-corrosion properties, and a hygienic surface, ideal for medical, food processing, and outdoor applications.

Thanks to its solid-state piezoelectric design and lack of mechanical wear components, the switch exceeds 50 million actuations, making it suitable for heavy-use industrial applications requiring long-term reliability.

No, the switch itself generates an electrical pulse upon pressing through the piezoelectric effect, so it does not need an external power source to operate, simplifying system integration and lowering power consumption.

Yes, with an actuation force between 3 to 5 Newtons and a smooth metal surface, this switch is designed to be reliably operated even with gloves on, supporting safe and convenient use in industrial, medical, and food environments.

The switch is available in soft momentary functions with SPST Normally Open (N.O.) or Normally Closed (N.C.) contacts, supports voltages from 1 to 24 V AC/DC, and carries switching currents up to 1A, suitable for diverse control circuit requirements.

Yes, Langir supports customization such as different actuator shapes (dome, flat, chamfer), illumination colors and patterns, mounting styles, and housing finishes to meet specific application needs in various industries.

These switches are widely applied in medical devices, food and beverage processing, industrial automation, marine equipment, automotive controls, and outdoor systems, where waterproofing, durability, and hygienic design are critical.

Langir leverages precision screw-machining, premium raw materials, rigorous quality control, and a one-piece sealed housing design to achieve outstanding performance and resistance to contaminants, delivering consistent quality and durability across all production batches.
