Waterproof Metal Pushbutton Switch MPB19 Series

Product Overview

The MPB19 series is a 19mm metal pushbutton switch launched by Taclex Switch that combines three key features: vandal resistance, water resistance, and illuminated indicators. Crafted from high-strength metals such as stainless steel, the product offers dual protection with an IK10 impact resistance rating and an IP67 water resistance rating, making it a highly reliable human-machine interface device designed for harsh operating environments.

Technical Parameters

Key Features

1. K10 Impact Resistance Certification: Unshakable in the Face of Violence：

The stainless steel version has passed the IK10 test, the highest impact resistance rating. Even if the faceplate is damaged by external forces, the switch body remains structurally intact, effectively resisting vandalism and accidental impacts to protect the device’s core control circuitry.

2. IP67 Front-Facing Water Resistance: Withstands Harsh Weather：

The front of the switch features IP67-rated full sealing, effectively preventing rain, mist, and dust from entering the internal mechanism. It handles outdoor deployment, high-pressure washing, and humid environments with ease.

3. 1 Million Cycle Mechanical Life, Built to Last：

The self-resetting type has a mechanical life of up to 1,000,000 cycles, while the self-locking type reaches 500,000 cycles. Under full-load conditions, the electrical life remains at 50,000 on-off cycles, requiring virtually no replacement throughout its entire lifecycle.

4. Ring-Shaped Backlight Indicator, Precise Guidance in the Dark：

The illuminated version features a ring-shaped LED backlight, providing clear switch status indication in dimly lit environments or during nighttime operations, enhancing operational safety and giving the equipment a high-tech look.

5. 19mm Standard Cutout, Plug-and-Play：

Compatible with the internationally recognized 19mm panel cutout standard, with a wide torque range of 5–14 Nm for installation, suitable for various metal, plastic, and composite panels.
