The rugged P5 series is an alternate action “push on, push off”
pushbutton switch with contoured dome styling. With two design
versions,a flush dome and raised dome button profile, the P5-D
series offers excellent mechanical and electrical performance while
operating under severe conditions found in demanding applications.
The OTTO P5-D Dome series features unsealed, dusttight, moistureproof
and watertight seal options. Expect a minimum of 100,000 operations at
full rated load of 10 amperes resistive or 5 amperes inductive; up to a
million operations in low signal switching applications.
The OTTO P5-D Dome series is a quality precision snap-action switch
designed for use in panels, instruments, and other demanding
applications where attractive, rugged pushbutton switches are required.
