Let me know if you can if they are electrically suitable for this purpose.
Thanks mate

Yes, they should be OK.
It is not clear from picture how to connect them, though.
If it is mechanical (easily checked with ohm-meter, contacts will be open or closed, depending on position), you will have two wires for CHA, other two for CHB.
One of each goes to GND, other two go to Ek box inputs (CHA, CHB). You will not need to connect +5V.
If it is optical, it will require +5V, and you will have to determine where + is (if they do not send you data sheet - I tried to find it on web, but no luck..)
