Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does "momentary" mean for this push button switch?
A: A momentary push button switch only completes the circuit while the button is physically pressed. As soon as you release it, the switch automatically springs back (resets) to the open position. This makes it ideal for applications like doorbells, control panels, and machine start buttons where a brief, intentional trigger is needed.
Q: Is this push button switch truly waterproof for outdoor use?
A: Yes. This switch carries an IP65 ingress protection rating, which means it is fully protected against dust and low-pressure water jets from any direction. Combined with IK08 impact resistance, it is well suited for outdoor enclosures, industrial control panels, and other environments where moisture or physical contact is a concern.
Q: What panel thickness and hole size is required to install this switch?
A: The switch requires a round mounting cutout of approximately 16mm (0.63") in diameter. It installs via a standard bushing mount, making it compatible with most commercial electrical enclosures and custom DIY control panels. Please allow ±0.5mm tolerance due to manual measurement.
