Nidec Copal CHS Slide Switch

In precision electronics, the consistency of a signal depends on the quality of the mechanical interface. The CHS series excels by utilizing a specialized twin-contact architecture. This design provides two points of contact for every circuit connection, significantly reducing the risk of contact failure caused by dust, oxidation, or minor mechanical vibrations. As a result, users experience a highly stable transition every time the switch is moved.

Beyond electrical performance, the Nidec Copal CHS Slide Switch is engineered to withstand the rigors of automated production. The housing is molded from high-temperature resistant resin, specifically selected to maintain dimensional stability during the intense heat of SMT reflow profiles. The “washable” or wash-through design is a key competitive advantage, as it enables manufacturers to use standard aqueous or solvent-based cleaning systems to remove flux residues without damaging the internal switch mechanism. This combination of durability and process compatibility makes the CHS series a trusted component in both consumer and industrial-grade electronics.
