Product catalog summary
Overview: The W-Series Sealed Rocker Switches by Carling Technologies are designed for marine and on/off-highway applications, offering complete IP68 protection, including below-panel connections. These switches are compatible with complex circuitry and can accommodate up to ten individual wires.
Design Features: The switch body is made from a seamless polyester 94V0 material, providing robust protection for internal components. The tri-seal design ensures water-tight protection, and the integrated connector supports Tyco/Amp contacts for secure connections. The roller pin mechanism is lubricant-free, supporting up to 100,000 electrical and 250,000 mechanical cycles, and operates in temperatures from -40°C to +85°C.
Electrical Specifications: The switches have a contact rating of 0.4VA at 24VDC and can handle up to 10 amps at 3-24VDC. They feature a dielectric strength of 1500 Volts RMS and an insulation resistance of 50 Megohms. The initial contact resistance is 10 milliohms max at 4VDC.
Physical Specifications: The switches offer LED illumination options rated for 100,000 hours. The base is made from a polyester blend rated to 125°C, and the actuator is constructed from thermoplastic polycarbonate with a Nylon 66 overlay. The lens is polycarbonate rated at 100°C.
Environmental Specifications: The switches are IP68 sealed and resistant to corrosion, chemical splash, and thermal shock. They can operate in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C and withstand vibration and salt spray conditions as per military standards.
Mounting Specifications: The recommended panel thickness ranges from 0.032 to 0.125 inches for optimal fit.
Ordering Information: The document provides detailed part number configurations, including options for circuit types, illumination, actuator styles, and lens colors. Custom colors and legends are available upon request.
About Carling Technologies: Founded in 1920, Carling Technologies is a leading manufacturer of electrical components, with multiple ISO9001 and IATF16949 certified facilities worldwide. They offer a range of solutions beyond manufacturing, including engineering and technical support.
