SCHURTER’s Touchless Hidden Switch Offers Seamless Integration

Aug. 28, 2023
The THS Series uses optical sensor technology for a touchless solution without the need for visible mounting holes.

SCHURTER’s THS Series is designed for seamless integration. By incorporating a small opening in the user interface, the Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor can be activated immediately.

Key features of the THS switch series include:

  • Hygienic solution that can help prevent the spread of pathogens.
  • Water- and daylight-resistant, making it suitable for a range of environments
  • Calculates distances by emitting light beams and detecting their reflections
  • Designed for easy installation.

Because this touchless switch can be concealed behind any material, design engineers have freedom in panel design. The switch has RGB multicolor surface illumination, which provides feedback to users. The illumination supply voltage ranges from 5 to 28 VDC.

Customizable, Easy to Install

SCHURTER offers a Design-In Kit that allows users to test and adapt the THS switch with different materials and surface thicknesses. The kit offers customizable settings such as distance, time and illumination to meet specific requirements. The switch’s versatile design and reliable performance is designed to help ensure functionality and aesthetic appeal.
