Waterproof access control switches

Even as access control system technology continues to become more and more advanced, devices like our new waterproof push button switches continue to play an integral role in day-to-day operations,” said Bryan Sanderford, National Sales Manager, Dortronics. “Our new WR5276-HDD Series Waterproof Push Button Switches fill a longstanding market need and can be installed quickly and easily.”

Push buttons for outdoor use

Dortronics WR5276-HDD Series Waterproof Push Button Switches feature an IP66 rating and include a neoprene gasket making them ideal for use outdoors, in harsh conditions and also in areas such as cleanrooms that require wash-downs. When used with card access systems or automatic door openers, the switches’ double pole, normally-open, dry contact outputs can be wired to signal a door to unlock and to the door opener to activate.  

The heavy-duty WR5276-HDD Series Waterproof Push Button Switches are manufactured with brushed stainless steel in standard switch plate sizes with standard engraved legends.  Custom plates and text are available with a quick turn-around time.
