RS PRO Capacitive Switch Latching NO Illuminated Blue White IP68 Polycarbonate Brass Contacts 1.5A 5-30V DC 8232741P

RS PRO 8232741P Capacitive Switch Latching NO Illuminated is engineered for industrial, laboratory, and commercial automation applications requiring reliable tactile control with high ingress protection. This capacitive switch utilizes advanced touch-sensitive technology suitable for use even when wearing gloves, making it ideal for environments such as food processing plants, medical laboratories, and hygienic facilities.

The switch operates with a latching mechanism, providing stable ON and OFF states with each activation. Illumination is integrated with mixed blue and white LEDs, ensuring clear visual feedback while enhancing user interface clarity under various lighting conditions.

Constructed with a robust black polycarbonate housing, it is designed for longevity, UV resistance, and safety, meeting UL94 V-0 flammability standards. The contact parts are crafted from brass to ensure reliable electrical conductivity and durability, suitable for current loads up to 1.5 Amperes.

Its IP68 rating confirms waterproof and dustproof protection, reinforcing suitability for marine equipment, water treatment facilities, and environments subjected to rigorous cleaning. The anodised aluminium outer case provides IK10 impact resistance, capable of withstanding 20 joules impact energy, thereby ensuring resilience in tougher industrial conditions.

The switch supports an input voltage range of 5 V DC to 30 V DC and operates reliably in a broad temperature range from -40°C to 125°C. Compact dimensions (20mm height, width, and depth) support easy integration into machines and control panels with constrained space.
