Ex-protected 3-way light switch with IP66 enclosure delivers safety and reliability in hazardous locations; the 3-way design enables flexible lighting control across zones, reducing wiring complexity and integration time. This translates to meaningful business impact by lowering installation time and improving system uptime in demanding environments, such as chemical plants and refineries. Voltage rating of 250 VAC and an amperage of 16 A supports standard lighting loads, simplifying panel design and reducing the need for additional components, which cuts upfront costs and inventory. The 1 x M25 entry and thermoplastic housing simplify installation, seal against dust and moisture, and extend service intervals, decreasing maintenance cycles and total cost of ownership. Compatibility with NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX standards ensures global applicability, while IP66 ingress protection guards against water and dust intrusion in outdoor or damp environments. This makes it ideal for hazardous-location projects in oil & gas, mining, and refining facilities, delivering reliable control and compliance.
