For rocker switches we at ALDERS rely on the precision switches by OTTO Controls and NKK Switches where the high quality is assured. The rocker switches of the K-series by OTTO Controls are very robust and effective and therefore ideal for the conditions in the naval industry, industrial control applications or also for off-road vehicles. In addition, they withstand many thousands switching operations and they comply with the protection category IP68, so that the rocker switches are extremely watertight. It is possible to equip the switches with illumination in, for example green and red to make it easier to distinguish the switching processes. It is also possible to print appropriate lettering on them. The snap-in function means that the switches can be integrated into an existing panel easier and faster. Also NKK Switches offer high-grade rocker switches that enable almost limitless configurations due to the different sizes, gradings and connections.
