SWITCHES 

SINGLE-BREAK, MILITARY AND COMMERCIAL GRADES 

OTTO B1 series basic switches are ultra-subminiature in size 

designed to reliably switch low level logic signals as well as two 

ampere switching capacity for a minimum of 25,000 cycles. Mechanical 

life expectancy is in excess of 1,000,000 cycles. 

The molded housing is rugged and structurally stable. The terminals 

are molded-in and sealed against solder flux entering the switch. The 

terminals are available in a choice of double turret solder style and 

.020 x .025 PC pins. They are gold plated for prolonged shelf life. 

The B1 series is also available with integral lever actuators 

as B1-5 series.

B1-5 Integral Lever Basic Switches 

B1-5 series basic switches feature integral actuating levers. The lever 

is built-in so that the switch and actuator are one assembly. 

Making the lever actuator an integral part of the basic switch case 

makes sense and saves money, too. Better precision, no parts to 

assemble and more variety add up to a cost saving proposition.

The B2 series is also available with integral lever actuators as the 

B2-5 series, as illustrated on the previous page. These are in addition 

to the A2 series auxiliary lever actuators shown in this section. 

While the OTTO B2 series conforms to and is qualified to various 

military specifications, the same switch can be specified for 

commercial use at a cost savings. 

A choice of turret, quick connect and three lengths of printed circuit 

style terminals are available for both the .156" and .200" wide models. 

Whether it be military or commercial applications, OTTO can provide 

features you select for your application. You can specify the features 

you require without spending for ones you don’t need. 

The OTTO B2 sub-subminiature switches conform to and are 

qualified under MIL-PRF-8805/4, /106 & /109. Basic switches are 

designed for miniature spaces where cam or other limit actuators 

are used on the button. In addition, a full range of toggle, pushbutton 

and lever actuators are available. 

Whatever your needs, OTTO has the switch and actuators to fit your 

application exactly. Please contact your OTTO representative.

COMMERCIAL & MILITARY GRADES, SUBMINIATURE DOUBLE-BREAK, SNAP-ACTION 

MIL-PRF-8805/76 (.200 inches wide) 

OTTO’s B3-22000 series is a sub-subminiature switch, that meets all 

requirements of MIL-PRF-8805/76. Designed to switch at least one 

million mechanical cycles, the B3 surpasses the requirements of the 

military in these categories: contact resistance less than 25 

milliohms, contact pressure, contact bounce and overall cycle life. All 

this is assured thanks to OTTO’s patented mechanism. For /76 

requirements, B3-22141 has standard gold flashed silver contacts, 

SPDT double-break two circuit (form Z), solder terminals in diallyl 

case material. Gold plated contacts are available for non-military 

applications. U.L. recognized and CSA certified models available. 

MIL-PRF-8805/101 (.156 inches wide) 

For your really difficult projects, try OTTO’S B3 series. They meet the 

OTTO inspired MIL-PRF-8805/101 specification. Only .156 thick, think 

of all those extra .044 inches you can use in those tight ganged jobs. 

With the B3 series, you can get an extra pole in where only four /76’s 

fit, with room to spare. Examine the characteristics. With the /101, the 

only thing you give up is the extra space the /76 takes. Cycle life, very 

low contact resistance, higher than normal contact pressures, 

minimal contact bounce...everything is exactly as provided by the /76 

specification. 

For /101 requirements, B3-11141 (P.C. Pin) and B3-12141 (turret) have 

gold flashed silver contacts and SPDT double-break (form Z) contact. 

For commercial applications, a variety of contact forms, special 

forces and gold plated contacts are available. Most versions are also 

U.L. recognized and CSA certified too. 

Great circuit versatility is available with either switch style. You have 

your choice of normally open (Form X) or closed (Form Y), 3-terminal 

(Form C) and 4-terminal (Form Z) SPDT double-break.
