EAO, the expert for Human Machine Interfaces, is a global manufacturer of premium quality switches, keypads and custom-built control panels. It also supplies the UK with CAN-bus vehicle keypads, displays and rotary switches from the leading US manufacturer, Grayhill, along with cooling fans and stepper motors from Sanyo Denki.

New for 2012

Motion control: The Sanyo Denki high torque hybrid stepper motor range has been extended to include IP65 rated stepper motors and CAN-bus interfaces for better environmental protection and flexible system integration.

Cooling solutions: Sanyo Denki’s oil and waterproof, IP55 rated cooling fans feature potted motors and increased impellor/frame clearance to resist oil and dust build up. The low power GA fans offer high static pressure and airflow, with lower noise and use up to 30% less power than conventional fans.

CAN-bus keypads joysticks and displays for vehicles and engine monitoring systems: Grayhill’s IP67 sealed vehicle keypads and joysticks now support both CAN-open and J1939 protocols. The range includes LCD displays up to 10.4”, multi-function display controller joysticks and rubberised keypads with back illuminated symbols and multi-state buttons that replicate rocker switch functionality.

Unique pushbutton switches: See EAO’s huge range of pushbutton switches from the Series 84 multi-coloured halo illuminated switches to the latest Series 51 compact Stop Switches which offer a low back panel depth of only 19mm.
