Waterproofing, achieved with boot at base of lever plus o-rings inside and outside of bushing,
meets IP67 of IEC60529 Standards (dust tight and protection against effects of temporary
immersion). See further explanation on page A51.
Processing
Soldering:
Manual Soldering for SIlver: ON-NONE-ON: See Profile B in Supplement section.
ON-OFF-ON and (ON)-OFF-(ON): See Profile A in Supplement section.
Manual Soldering for Gold, all circuits: See Profile A in Supplement section.
Note: Lever must be in OFF (center) position while soldering.
Distinctive Characteristics
Inner o-ring and external rubber washer seal the switch to achieve IP67 of
IEC60529 Standards (dust tight and water protected for temporary immersion).
Waterproof boot at base of toggle further ensures protection against wet
environments.
Actuation provides smooth, sturdy tactile feel.
Actual Size
Polished, chrome-plated actuator paired with the
waterproof boot not only delivers in terms of sleek
design, but also functionality and reliability.
Superb quality and construction design prohibit
entry of harmful particles that may otherwise
compromise lever operation.
