Watertight miniature switches

V15W series of watertight miniature switches by Honeywell has an IP67 waterproof seal rating and is reportedly the only V-switch in the industry rated up to 10 amps. The switches can be used in a wide range of high-current consumer and industrial applications where spillage or water could be a factor. Potential applications include medical equipment such as hospital beds, dental chairs, and foot pedals.

The watertight switches are fully configurable and include a wide variety of actuators, terminals, and electrical and operating characteristics. They meet UL and other agency requirements and are available in three options for protection: sealed plunger, dust-tight (with epoxy seal on terminals) and pre-leaded.
