Durability Without Compromising Usability | IP65 Rated 3120-N

Do you design equipment used in environments with dust, moisture or other penetrating liquids? If so, you are more than familiar with the IP rated PVC covers for switches and circuit breakers and the disadvantages that come along with them. E-T-A’s new IP65 Rated 3120-N circuit breaker switch with an integrated silicone seal will improve the quality of your design and also enhance the user experience for equipment operators.

Compared to standard PVC splash covers, the new E-T-A accordion style seal not only protects the actuation area, but also provides front panel sealing for ideal IP protection. Standard PVC covers become yellow when exposed to sunlight. They also become brittle and can crack due to environmental influences. The new silicone seal is insensitive to ozone, ultraviolet light, and most oils and acids.

The new seal for E-T-A's 3120 makes the rocker actuator easily accessible. Switching the device is simple, even when the user is wearing gloves. E-T-A's 3120 works as an on/off switch, while at the same time providing a most reliable disconnection in the event of an overcurrent. After tripping due to an overcurrent, the user can easily and quickly reset the 3120 to resume operation.
