In some humid environments where waterproof key switches are required, you can use them with confidence. There are many brands and types of waterproof key switches on the market, but in the true sense, there are still relatively few key switches with good waterproof sealing performance.

The main evaluation standard for the waterproof performance of waterproof key switches is based on the ip waterproof rating standard. To see how the waterproof performance of the waterproof switch is, it mainly depends on the two digits XX at the back of IPXX. The first X is from 0 to 6, and the highest level is 6; the second X is from 0 to 8, and the highest level is 8; br /> The highest waterproof rating of the water push button switch is IP68.

Second, whether the certification is complete
