Main Features for the 12000x778 Series Toggle Switch
Approvals
- CECC 96201-005 CECC 96201-008 MIL-DTL-3950 MIL-DTL-83731
Sealing
- Panel sealed to IP 67, these switches are frontal sealed by two O-rings and have full rear end sealing.
Compact Size
- The small rear end of the switch allows space saving behind the panel.
Finish
- Matt black finish on body, bushing, lever and hardware.
Contacts
- Highly reliable contacts suitable for low level applications (10mA 50mV – 10μA 5VDC min.) or power applications (2A 250VAC – 4A 125VAC – 4A 30VDC max.)
Double Shell Case
- For high mechanical strength and high electrical insulation.
Pinned Lever
- The base of the switch lever is pinned to the bushing, thus earthing the lever to the bushing. This also provides strain relief to protect the switch if accidentally knocked.
