In the world of elevator manufacturing and maintenance, every component is critical. The push button switch, one of the most frequently interacted parts, must withstand millions of presses, various environmental conditions, and provide unwavering reliability. Our 16mm IP67 Waterproof Momentary Metal Push Button Switch with Ring LED is engineered specifically to meet and exceed these rigorous industrial demands, offering a perfect blend of durability, functionality, and aesthetic appeal for modern elevator systems.
Why This Switch is Ideal for Elevator Applications
Unmatched Durability & Longevity:
Extreme Lifespan: With a mechanical life exceeding 1,000,000 cycles and an electrical life of over 500,000 cycles (at DC 12V/0.5A), this switch is built for the high-traffic nature of elevators in commercial and residential buildings.
Robust Construction: The housing is available in premium SUS304 stainless steel or brass nickel-plated finishes, ensuring corrosion resistance, a professional look, and the ability to endure daily wear and tear.
High-Strength Contacts: Silver tin oxide alloy contacts provide low contact resistance (<50mΩ) and reliable switching, even under the inductive loads typical in control circuits.
Superior Environmental Protection:
Rated IP67 (Customizable to IP68): This switch is completely protected against dust ingress and can withstand temporary immersion in water. This makes it ideal for elevator lobbies, outdoor installations, or areas requiring frequent cleaning, safeguarding against moisture and contaminants.
Wide Temperature Range: Stable operation from -30°C to 85°C ensures performance in unconditioned machine rooms or in various global climates.
Clear Visual Feedback & Customization:
Vivid Ring LED Illumination: Provides clear floor or function indication. Available in a wide spectrum of colors (Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, White, etc.) and various LED voltages (from 1.8V to 220V AC/DC), allowing for seamless integration into any elevator control panel voltage scheme.
Tactile User Experience: A consistent key travel of 3mm with a smooth actuation force of 2.5-4N offers a premium, responsive feel to users.
Flexible Configuration for System Integration:
Multiple Contact Configurations: Choose from 1NO1NC or 2NO2NC forms to fit your specific control logic.
Standard Mounting: The 16mm mounting hole diameter (also available in 19mm, 22mm, etc.) is an industry-standard size, simplifying panel design and retrofitting.
Work Form Options: Available in momentary (self-resetting) or self-locking styles to suit different elevator signaling requirements.
