First TSL-ESCHA hybrid push button
Since November 2021, TSL-ESCHA has been part of the MAFELEC TEAM, an owner-managed French group. The CK Touchless is the first joint project between TSL-ESCHA and MAFELEC.
TSL-ESCHA looks back on 35 years of experience in the development and production of push buttons. The focus is on the continuous development of products in order to realize holistic solutions to meet individual customer requirements. With the integration of touchless technology, TSL-ESCHA is expending its successful Combikey (CK) push button series and offers a product variation which additionally enables touchless activation of the push button.
The CK Touchless was designed for applications in rail vehicles and buses and can also be easily integrated into existing vehicles thanks to its simple installation. It offers a wide range of customized applications and is particularly suitable for use in lavatories and other areas where hygiene and cleanliness cannot be guaranteed on a permanent basis. The use of touchless technology also improves passenger comfort and increases personal well-being when using public transportation.
Features of the touchless function
- Easy handling: sensor activation by intuitive hand movement in the direction of the tactile touch surface
- Sensor detects wiping movements during cleaning processes: activation only with intentional operation
- Optimal coverage of the interaction area: due to the pointed cone shape of the activation area, no adjacent buttons are triggered
