Low-and medium-voltage switching systems rely on stable contact resistance, arc control, and mechanical durability across high cycle counts. Checon engineers electrical contacts and assemblies for consistent performance in industrial control, HVAC systems, and appliance applications.



Applications and Markets
Applications and Markets
Electrical contacts that maintain performance under repeated switching cycles, varying loads, and environmental conditions are specified for:
● Industrial Circuit Breakers
● HVAC and Industrial Switches, Contactors, and Motor Controls
● Industrial Push Button and Toggle Switches
● Appliance Controls, Timers, and Thermal Cutoffs
● Commercial Wiring Devices
● Ground Fault Interrupters (GFCIs)
● Truck and Automotive Power Control Equipment
Checon supports industrial, HVAC, and appliance switching applications through vertically integrated capabilities that span the full contact system:
● Contact Materials Engineering — Silver alloys and refractory materials optimized for conductivity, arc resistance, and wear.
● Discrete Contact Components — Tips, buttons, and rivets for consistent electrical and mechanical performance.
● Contact Subassemblies and Integrated Systems — Brazed and fabricated assemblies for repeatable performance and manufacturability.
● Process Control and Validation — In-house testing and quality systems for reliable high-cycle switching.
