Supplier's note

  1. Three Technical Breakthroughs:

    • High Current Capacity: The 16A rating (Base Model) outperforms standard 10A switches, enabling use in heavy-duty equipment.
    • Extended Lifespan: The Pro Model’s 100,000 cycles exceed industry benchmarks by 30%, ideal for high-traffic machinery.
    • Wide Temperature Range: The Pro Model’s -40°C to 90°C tolerance supports extreme environments like automotive or outdoor systems.
  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model: Suitable for standard applications like home appliances or office equipment where 16A suffices.
    • Advanced Model: Ideal for industrial robotics or HVAC systems needing 19A and -30°C resilience.
    • Pro Model: Best for extreme scenarios (e.g., mining equipment) requiring 21A and -40°C to 90°C operation. With its triple-certified chemical resistance (IP67, UL, CE), the Pro Model ensures safe handling of corrosive fluids in chemical plants. Pair its high-current capacity with the steel lever for uninterrupted operation in harsh conditions.
