Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • The self-locking knob reduces operational errors by 40% compared to non-locking designs.
    • Enhanced brass contacts in the Pro model offer 30% lower resistance than standard copper alloys.
    • IP67-rated sealing in the Pro version enables submersion in water for up to 30 minutes, exceeding industry IP54 standards.
  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model: Ideal for standard industrial use (e.g., HVAC systems) where 3-speed control suffices.
    • Advanced Model: Suitable for food processing or marine environments needing IP65 protection and expanded customization.
    • Pro Model: Best for heavy machinery in harsh outdoor settings (e.g., mining equipment) requiring high current handling and full customization.

Example benefit: With the Pro model’s IP67 rating, you can safely install the switch in outdoor pumps without risk of water ingress, ensuring uninterrupted operation during rain or washdown cycles.
