SEALED AGAINST DUST & MOISTURE
The P5 Alternate Action switches match the P1, P3 and P8
Momentary Action Pushbutton models for mixed function
with common panel appearance. Now you can design panels
with both alternate and momentary action switches and have
uniform panel appearance. The P5 features alternate action
in the same pushbutton and housing configuration as the
momentary P1 and P3 and as a bonus, the P5 requires less
behind the panel space than the P1 and P3 momentary versions.
Push and the P5 switch turns “on.” Push again and the P5 switch
turns “off.” Positive tactile feedback is featured so the operator
is clearly aware the switch mode has been executed. The button
returns to the original position after each actuation.
To guard against front panel splash and dirt, the P5 series
is sealed at the button with OTTO’s patented “rolling
sleeve”principle. The terminals are sealed with epoxy, providing
a seal against flux during wiring and behind panel dirt and
moisture. The combination of sealing provides smooth operation
over a wide temperature range. Watertight sealing to IP68S is
available.
A vandal resistant style is available in the P5-V series. Custom
housings, shrouded buttons, contact configurations and
materials are available to suit your application requirements. We
also provide custom button engraving with epoxy ink backfill,
watertight versions and other special characteristics.
