In the industry 12mm button switch waterproof and dust effect is better products, internal waterproof up to IP68 and with LED signal display. Pass the TUV:IP68 waterproofing test, suitable for environments requiring waterproofing, dust, and other contaminants, including field vehicles, agricultural instruments, machine tools, processing tools, and medical instruments.
Each harsh environment presents a unique set of challenges due to a number of factors, such as extreme temperatures, water, chemicals, dust, oils, and other types of pollutants. A major characteristic of heavy equipment environments is the certainty of prolonged or particularly significant exposure to contaminants. These conditions often also produce temperature and waterproof problems, which may affect the fit and performance of the switch. Construction, mining and agricultural sites are not the friendliest environments for electrical components. When using selector switches for heavy equipment in the cockpit, using products not specifically designed for harsh environmental conditions can lead to a significant reduction in switch life expectancy or even serious switch failure.
Therefore, the IP68 grade switch is the best choice for heavy equipment applications. Based on the hierarchical classification system, IP hierarchical switch can definitely resist some environmental factors. IP code is a part of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) IEC60529 standard. The first digit of the IP code indicates the protection level of the enclosure against exposure to dangerous parts (such as electrical conductors, moving parts) and solid foreign objects. The second number is for liquids. Our Pushbutton switch PB-12 series meet these requirements and pass the TUV:IP68 waterproof grade test.
Light switches are commonly used in applications with low light lines (such as a dimly lit vehicle cab) where it is difficult to identify each switch function, and the backlit housing graphic provides the operator with a high visibility indication of which function they are activating. They also provide noticeable feedback that can be sensed by thick work gloves. These functional features are available in the PB-12 series.
