CT Series Toggle Switches Feature IP67 Waterproof Rating

May 8, 2025
APEM’s CT Series toggle switches include a crimped top design to resist liquid and potting material intrusion.

CT Series toggle switches are industrial-grade toggle switches designed for harsh environments in sectors such as agriculture, material handling, heavy equipment, and specialty vehicles. Available in standard 15/32 in mounting hole form factors, the series comes in a variety of configurations with one- and two-pole options. Electrical ratings include 15A at 28V DC and 10A at 125/250V AC. Terminal options include screw, solder lug, and quick connect styles.

The switches feature a one-piece crimped-on top that prevents intrusion by liquid or potting materials, contrasting with common pinned designs. Internally, the switches use a wheel mechanism to deliver smoother tactile feedback. Their construction includes thicker cast components and a thermoset plastic base to withstand physical and environmental stress.

The switches carry an IP67 rating and operate within a temperature range of -49°F to 185°F (-45°C to 85°C). A wide range of accessories—such as nameplates, protective boots, and switch guards—supports various installation needs. Popular part numbers are stocked for rapid fulfillment.
