October 1, 2002 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
Phoenix and UK -- Duraswitch licensee Dewhurst plc was awarded the British Lift Industry Awards' (BLIA) "Best Product of the Year, 2002" award in the under 500 pound category for its Compact 2 Micro, which incorporates Duraswitch's PushGate pushbutton technology.
The Compact 2 Micro, introduced earlier this year, is said to feature micro-movement; crisp, consistent tactile feel; environmental sealability; and durability and reliability.
Dewhurst became a licensee in November 2000 and adopted the PushGate technology to create a shallow switch -- less than 20 mm, about half of its previous electromechanical switch's thickness -- which is targeted for use in for surface-mount landing and car stations. Dewhurst's Compact 2 Micro also features an extensive and flexible range of connector options, which allows it to easily interchange with most other products on the market.
Dewhurst plc is a leading independent supplier of control systems and components to international markets with products focused on: the lift industry, rail transportation, keypad technology and automated banking and retailing machines. For more information, visit www.dewhurst.co.uk.
