IN FRONT OF THE PANEL
Coordinated, attractive appearance.
AML features innovations designed by industrial designers to achieve the best balance of human factors and aesthetic appearance. Operator height, bezel size,
and the compatibility of square and rectangular shapes blend with other components to harmonize your panel. There’s
no visual clutter to distract from man/
machine communication.
Display flexibility. AML offers a choice of
five legend sizes, four button heights, full
or split section display, and illumination
by incandescent lamps, LED’s or neons.
Colors are bright and uniform, providing a
strong definition and good visibility. (Nonilluminated devices have the same attractive colors.)
BEHIND THE PANEL
AML’s simple, cost effective design provides many behind-panel benefits for the
designer and installer/user.
Simple to install. They snap in from the
panel front individually or in vertical or
horizontal strips; or in subpanel mounted
strips and matrices that can be pre-assembled and pre-wired to assure accurate alignment and efficient panel building.
Electrical flexibility. Solid state switches
with Hall effect integrated circuits
interface directly with microprocessors
and other logic level devices. These IC’s
were first applied in MICRO SWITCH solid
state keyboards. Today, many MICRO
SWITCH products incorporate the Hall
effect technology to meet a wide range of
position sensing and manual control
needs.
Electronic control switches with gold or
silver contacts, and 1, 2, or 4 poles, will
handle up to 3 amps. Including an encoded version which generates different binary coded outputs merely by changing
cam-keyed buttons.
Easy to wire. All AML devices present
single level termination. This means faster, easier, neater, and more economical
wiring. And there is a choice of solder,
quick-connect, push-on, and printed circuit termination.
MATING RECEPTACLES
The .110 × .020 quick-connect/solder terminal (types 2 and 8) is designed for use
with receptacles that comply with the UL
standard for insertion and withdrawal
forces. Maximum insertion force is 12 lbs.
max., withdrawal force is 14 lbs. These
receptacles are supplied by: AMP Inc.,
Berg, Augat, Hollingsworth, MALCO,
Zierick, and others. Refer to Thomas Register or the Yellow Pages for the location
of your local supplier.
Power duty switches meet line disconnect application needs with 10-amp pushbuttons and 15-amp paddle and rocker
switches.
Color display options include:
1 Transmitted color — color can be
distinguished whether lamp is On or
Off.
1 Dead front — display appears black,
until illumination causes legend and
color to appear.
1 Projected color — white display is
diffused with color when illuminated.

Manuals
This comprehensive line of lighted and
unlighted manual controls features:
1 Pushbuttons for high and
intermediate frequency functions;
1 Rocker and paddle switches, with 2 or
3 positions, for less frequent control
functions;
1 Plus lighted indicators and
annunciators which complement
AML’s universal appeal.
Various controls can be matched with
their functions to accommodate the most
natural and efficient habit pattern reflex.
Keylock operated switches can be used
to assure ‘‘authorized personnel only’’
access.

switches accommodates different
functions and promotes operator
efficiency.
1 Solid state, electronic, and power

1 Full or split screen incandescent
display switches and indicators
provide vivid transmitted color,
projected color (for neutral display
when unlit), and dead front (hidden

1 Wide-angle visibility LED and line
voltage neon display switches and
indicators.
1 Annunciators back-lighted by LED’s
enable high density message display.
1 Keylock switches available for
controlled access applications.
1 All AML terminations at the same
shallow depth (1.7 in. /43,1 mm) for
convenient wiring or PC board
termination.
1 Snap-in surface mount or sub-panel
(hidden bezel) mount with mounting
hardware.
1 Pad printed legends with a clear
polyurethane overcoat available in a
choice of five standard sizes.

MICRO SWITCH AML Advanced Manual
Line combines functional flexibility with
electrical versatility to provide a broad
range of options to choose from.
FULL GUARD BEZEL OPTION
EASY TO RELAMP
Relamping of T-1-3/4 incandescent
AML91 lamps is accomplished from the
front of the panel without tools. (AML92
T-1-3/4 LEDs can be added in the same
manner.)
As an alternative to standard height bezels (.06 in./1,5 mm), pushbutton switches can be furnished with full guard bezels
extending .19 in./5.0 mm from the mounting surface. In the free position, standard
buttons are flush with full guard bezels.
The raised bezel guards against accidental operation by someone leaning against
or dropping something on a control console.
High Intensity LEDs For Full-face AML Lighted Display
AML92 Series
1 Full-face illumination for high visibility lighted colors.
1 Advanced illumination technology combines high-intensity LED in standard
T-1-3/4 wedge base lamp package.
1 Easy plug-in installation in AML lighted switches and indicators.
1 Low operating temperature permits high density, continuous operation with
minimal heat build-up.
AML92 Series LEDs have a quad chip assembled in a T-1-3/4 wedge base lamp
package. They provide full-face illumination when used with lighted pushbutton,
rocker and paddle switches, or indicators equipped with incandescent lamp
sockets. For ordering information, refer to page 58.

AML75 PANEL SEAL ACCESSORY
Panel cutouts
Multiple panel sealed units should not be
mounted together in a single elongated
slot, since this would create an unsealed
space between each unit.
Side-by-side mounting can be achieved,
per the center-to-center dimensions
shown in the drawing. (Dotted lines indicate the seal bases which are abutting
at front of panel.)
AML75 seals are not designed for use
with the AML61 mounting system.
NOTE: Suggested cutout dimensions are
based on an .125N/3,18 mm panel thickness. Individual preferences for inpanel fit
may require measurement of assemblies
before panels are cut.
