CPI’s J4 Ball switches are used around the world for detection applications in harsh, wet, outdoor environments when field failures are not an option. Tested for electromagnetic endurance over 1 million cycles, the stainless steel J4 ball switch represents precision… Continue reading Have a Ball with CPI’s J4 Series
Some of us press sealed switch enclosures dozens of times a day and never think twice about it— as long as they work. Yet an unresponsive switch or one with the wrong force characteristics can get plenty of attention, none… Continue reading Why Switch Tactile Feel is Important
In today’s demanding industrial and military applications, where failure is not an option, the CPI J4 series Ball & Plunger switches stand out for their exceptional durability and compact design. Built to endure the harshest environments—from scorching heat to freezing… Continue reading Durable J4 Ball & Plunger Switches: Reliable Performance in Any Environment
The mass production of food products is a fascinating business, requiring the specification of many different types of technology in many different operating environments. In some cases, massive amounts of raw food product has to be carefully cooked and packaged… Continue reading Sensing Conveyance System Limits, with Limit Switches.
Sometimes clients come to us because they have a small need for switches on an outdoor application and want to design in a sealed switch that they won’t ever have to worry about. A switch that is truly waterproof, with… Continue reading Defining Harsh Environments for Commercial Vehicles.
Perhaps it would be fair to say that only us engineering types might find this statement true at face value. After all, CPI switches once you really understand the design and engineering that has gone into them, conjure a certain… Continue reading CPI Switches are a Big Turn-On
For Aircraft and aviation related components, reliable high temperature detection is a key system for preventing a wide variety of in-flight system failures, or activating fail-safe mechanisms especially in so-called “spot-fire detection” applications. Indeed CPI’s X1 thermal switch is often… Continue reading Aircraft Fire Detection – Spot Fire detection Systems
Ball & Plunger switches in our J4 series continue to achieve new design-ins in applications where their small size and extreme durability can’t be matched. Under our stainless steel hood resides 75 years of experience making hardened, reliable switching components… Continue reading Hardened Ball & Plunger Switches Get the Job Done
The mass production of food products is a fascinating business, requiring the specification of many different types of technology in many different operating environments. In some cases, massive amounts of raw food product has to be carefully cooked and packaged… Continue reading Food Processing Equipment Runs Hot and Cold with our Limit Switches.
For commercial applications of all kinds, switching 12 Volts is probably the most common bus voltage used with our sealed, waterproof limit switches. While CPI’s line of waterproof switches is rated to operate from 5V to 28V, 12 Volt applications… Continue reading CPI 12 Volt Switches – An Enduring Legacy
