In a crowded market, the PK series stands out, providing market leading ingress and impact protection, electrical performance, and a wide variety of material options and finishes.

The market for vandal-resistant switches is crowded, with countless options that often fall short on performance or value. The PK-series, however, provides a robust design at a competitive price, ensuring these components not only meet but exceed the demands of harsh environments.

The PK-series of switches and indicators are designed and built for longevity, offering a level of durability and reliability that sets them apart.

Key Features include:

  • Premium Materials: housed in a choice of durable metals, including stainless steel (grades 303, 304, and 316), nickel-plated brass, or anodised aluminium. The use of molybdenum in Grade 316 stainless steel makes it highly resistant to corrosion in environments with chlorides, such as marine applications. Additionally, anodised aluminium is exceptionally durable and scratch resistant.
  • Industry-Leading Protection: The PK-series offers ingress protection up to IP68, with an optional IP69K rating for applications requiring high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns. The switches also have an IK10 mechanical impact rating, providing the highest level of protection against vandalism and impacts of up to 20 joules.
  • High Current Capability: The switches are rated for high currents, up to 6A at 125/250VAC and 6A at 48VDC.
  • Diverse Functionality: The range includes both momentary and latching options to suit various application needs.
  • Illumination Options: Switches can be supplied with different LED illumination options, including bi-colour LEDs.
  • Enhanced Sealing: To prevent ingress behind the panel, terminals are epoxy sealed and can be supplied with wire leads, providing a secure and robust connection.
  • Approved for Worldwide Use: The PK-series holds both ENEC and UL certifications, confirming compliance with European and international standards.

We would be delighted to discuss how the PK-series can enhance your next project. For technical advice, samples, or to arrange a meeting, please get in touch.
