What are the standards for waterproof push button switches?

Have you used waterproof push button switches? This switch is a waterproof device that can be installed underwater. Water is a conductor, water and circuits are easy to get an electric shock, and the waterproof switch button is a button to prevent electric shock. What are the criteria for judging waterproof switches? There are three criteria for judging waterproof switches, and waterproof switches with different structures have different uses. The following editor will introduce the judgment standard and correct use method of waterproof button switch.

First, the criteria for judging

1. IP waterproof standard

The main evaluation standard of the waterproof performance of the waterproof switch is based on the IP waterproof grade standard. The waterproof performance of the waterproof switch mainly depends on the two-digit number XX behind IPXX. The first XX is from 0 to 6, the highest level is 6. ;The 2nd digit X is 0-8, the highest rank is 8. ;So IP68 is the highest waterproof level of waterproof push button switch.

2. Check whether the identity authentication is complete?

Relevant ROHS regulations, SGS certification; and VDE/DEMKO/KEMA (now using EU ENEC), UL/CSA and other certifications. These are the certification requirements for high-quality waterproof push button switches produced by Hongbo Button. If it is exported overseas.

3. Other judgment criteria

It should be considered that the waterproof push button switch has reasonable design, long service life, high temperature resistance, and high current impact resistance, which can meet the specific needs of your products.

Note 2

The specific application of these waterproof switches is limited by many factors such as installation method, product installation direction, air flow, product pressure difference, fluid rebound strength, and working voltage. etc. Even Arcolectric waterproof pushbutton switches with excellent sealing performance have reached the leading level of sealing technology, which means that the switch is completely sealed and needs to prevent the intrusion of corrosive gases or substances.

Third, the structure type

There are many kinds of waterproof button switch structures, which can be divided into ordinary button type, mushroom head type, self-locking type, self-resetting type, rotary handle type, indicator light type, light symbol type, key type, etc. They have single button, double button, three buttons and different combination forms, usually composed of button cap, return spring, bridging contact and shell. They are usually composite, with a pair of normally closed and normally open contacts. Some products can increase the number of contact pairs by connecting multiple components in series. There is also a self-holding button, which can automatically maintain the closed position after being pressed, and can be opened after power failure.

So what are the criteria for judging waterproof push button switches and how to use them correctly? Waterproof button, switch is the use method of waterproof button switch, which is composed of many switches with different structures. Where will the waterproof push button switch be used? It is generally used in some wet places, and it is also used under the swimming pool. The use of waterproof push button switches is also limited by various environmental factors. When installing, it needs to be installed according to different occasions, and it also needs to be adjusted when using it.
