Explosion Proof Single Gang Switch Light Control Switch

Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Explosion-Proof Control: Designed to safely manage on-off-on electrical circuits in hazardous environments prone to explosive gases or dust.
  • IP65 Protection: Features dust and water resistance, ensuring reliability in harsh outdoor or indoor industrial settings.
  • High-Power Handling: Supports up to 380V voltage and 10A current, ideal for heavy-duty electrical systems.

Key features

  • 1. Corrosion-Resistant Aluminum Alloy Construction

  • With a corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy body, ensure long-lasting durability in harsh industrial or outdoor environments*. Compared to plastic-only switches, this material resists rust and deformation, extending service life in demanding conditions.

  • 2. Three-Position On-Off-On Switching Design

  • With three-position on-off-on control, manage multiple lighting configurations or dual circuits effortlessly*. This interactive design offers flexible setup options for complex lighting systems, unlike standard single-position switches.

  • 3. High-Voltage & Heavy-Duty Performance

  • Supporting up to 380V/10A, handle heavy-duty electrical loads ~30% more efficiently than standard residential switches*. Ideal for commercial or industrial applications requiring robust power management.

  • 4. Explosion-Proof & IP65 Protection

  • Engineered for explosion-proof safety and IP65 dust/water resistance, operate reliably in hazardous zones or wet environments*. Safely deploy in factories, oil rigs, or outdoor settings where traditional switches may fail.

  • 5. Compliance with Industrial Safety Standards

  • With compliance to explosion-proof safety standards, deploy confidently in regulated industrial settings*. Meets critical certifications for hazardous location use (subject to manufacturer confirmation).

Supplier's note

  1. Three Technical Breakthroughs:

    • Composite Material: The aluminum alloy-plastic blend reduces weight by 20% compared to full-metal switches while maintaining structural integrity.
    • Enhanced IP65 Protection: A 30% tighter seal than standard switches prevents ingress in heavy rain or dusty conditions.
    • Triple-Position On-Off-On Design: Reduces operational errors in high-risk zones by enabling clear "Off," "On," and "Test" modes.
  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model: Ideal for general industrial use (e.g., warehouses) where cost-efficiency is prioritized.
    • Advanced Model: Targets chemical and petrochemical facilities needing dual certifications (IECEx + ATEX).
    • Pro Model: Best for extreme environments (e.g., offshore platforms) requiring ultra-wide temperature tolerance and FM certification.

With the Pro’s expanded temperature range, you can safely deploy it in Arctic or desert zones. Pair its full-aluminum construction with the IP65 rating to ensure zero corrosion even in saltwater exposure.
