The Pushbutton That Passed the Design Review
YB2 Series Switches

When a leading manufacturer of EV chargers struggled to find a pushbutton that matched both their design and durability standards, they found the answer in NKK’s YB2 Series Switches — because not all pushbuttons are created equal.

From $5B to $24B
Design Expectations are Rising
The U.S. EV charging infrastructure market is projected to grow from $5.09B in 2024 to $24.07B by 2030 — a 30.3% CAGR, according to
Grandview Research.

This growth is shifting design expectations. Engineers are prioritizing clean interfaces, intuitive feedback, and premium materials that support long-term reliability and brand perception.

Customization
Without Compromise
A leading EV charger manufacturer needed a design that matched the premium spaces it would serve—luxury hotels, residential towers, and upscale retail. They customized every detail, from cable routing to the shape of the enclosure.

But the real challenge? Finding a status indicator that looked sleek on the panel—yet stood up to daily wear in high-traffic zones. That’s where the YB2 Series Panel Sealed Pushbutton came in.

Sleek Meets Smart
Why They Chose the YB2

• Flush Mount, Low Profile – Only 1.8mm above panel for a seamless, clean look.
• Bezel & Cap Options – Black or brushed chrome bezels; cap colors include clear, red, green, yellow, and metallic silver (round only).
• Brilliant LED Illumination – Supports multiple colors, lighting styles, and brightness levels for real-time status indication.
