EMI Fan Guards Using Microvent Technology

We’re proud to introduce our new Fan Guard product line, which is our latest application of MicroVent®, an advanced technology developed by Atrenne, to provide more efficient airflow while meeting EMI/RFI requirements. The sophisticated machining process yields a hexagonal design with up to 80%+ open area for unobstructed air flow.

Available in 80mm and 120mm standard sizes, as well as custom sizes, these fan guards attach easily to any embedded computer fan with machine screws. Made from extruded aluminum or sheet stock, they adhere to industry-standard fan geometries of 2, 3 and 5mm thickness and they allow for a seamless installation.

Otto Introduces New Latching Pushbutton

New Latching Pushbutton Ideal for Basic ON/OFF Functions

The P9M is a small, sealed normally open, latching switch, ideal for basic ON/OFF functions. When the button is pushed, it latches into position and with another push, it unlatches. It comes with a standard 15/32” threaded case for hex nut mounting and features a short behind panel depth. The P9M is available with ush or raised dome button styles in 9 different colors with a gloss or matte nish. It offers excellent performance while operating under severe conditions found in demanding applications.

The P9M is a quality precision switch designed for use in control panels, grips, computers, instruments and other applications where attractive rugged, long life pushbutton switches are required.

P9M Key Features:

• Sealed to IP68S

• All plastic housing & button construction

• 15/32" standard bushing

• Flush and raised dome button styles in gloss or matte finish

• Choice of 9 standard button colors

• RoHS/WEEE/Reach compliant
