Electrical compatibility: Designed to suit standard control circuits with multiple contact configurations (SPST, SPDT, DPDT) and various voltage/current ratings per model. Materials and build: Housings available in metal or strength plastic; rugged finishes for industrial use; durable actuation designed for long service life. Size and mounting: Panel mounted with standard cutouts; compact form factors to fit tight enclosures; simple installation and alignment. Keying options: Changeable cores available in multiple keys; options for keyedalike or differentkeyed sets to fit security requirements. Reliability and safety: Built for continuous operation in challenging environments; smooth actuation with minimal wear; designed to meet common industry safety standards. Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of control applications across equipment and facilities. Use scenarios Industrial control panels for manufacturing lines where supervisor authorization is required to start or stop equipment. Electrical enclosures and service panels in data centers, telecom rooms, or security cabinets to prevent unauthorized access to power controls. Vending machines, kiosks, or mounted equipment where secure power control helps deter tampering and accidental operation.
