As the core product developed by Yueqing Tongda Cable Factory for special environments such as humidity, dust, and outdoor conditions, the FSK-18 series waterproof switches boast 'IP67 high protection and stable electrical performance' as their key advantages. Leveraging 35 years of switch manufacturing expertise, they feature various triggering modes, including rocker and button types, and are widely used in outdoor lighting, kitchen appliances, automotive electronics, industrial cleaning equipment, and other scenarios, making them a reliable choice for circuit control in harsh environments.
Waterproof Micro Switch Introduction
The core competitiveness of the FSK-18 lies in its "perfect balance of miniaturization and waterproofing," using a patented sealing structure design: high-elasticity nitrile rubber sealing rings are embedded at the shell joints, combined with an overall potting process to fill internal gaps, completely blocking the intrusion paths of water vapor and dust. The protection level reaches IP67, capable of withstanding 30 minutes of immersion at a depth of 1 meter, ensuring stable operation in environments such as bathrooms, outdoor rain, and humid industrial workshops.
The shell is made of flame-retardant PA66 reinforced nylon, treated with high-temperature modification, providing both flame resistance (UL94 V-0) and anti-aging performance. The operating temperature range covers -25℃ to 85℃, capable of withstanding high and low temperature cycling impacts, preventing material cracking or performance degradation in extreme environments. The contact system uses highly wear-resistant silver alloy material, optimized with a vacuum plating process. The initial contact resistance is ≤50mΩ, insulation resistance is ≥100MΩ (500VDC), and the terminal withstand voltage reaches 1500V AC, effectively preventing leakage and contact oxidation in humid environments.
Waterproof Micro Switch Feature and Application
Rated parameters offer multiple configurations: AC scenarios support 0.5A/250V AC and 5A/125V AC, while DC scenarios cover levels such as 0.1A/48V DC and 3A/12V DC, allowing direct driving of small relays and miniature motors without additional intermediate components, simplifying circuit design. Terminal types support flexible customization, including 1.3×0.5mm PCB terminals, 3.2×0.5mm solder terminals, and lead terminals, suitable for PCB mounting and on-site wiring needs. Additionally, it supports basic 2-pin and 3-pin configurations, meeting functional requirements such as normally open (NO), normally closed (NC), and single-pole double-throw (SPDT).
