IP66 Weatherproof Latching Keyswitch | WP-VPKS-1

The RGL WP-VPKS-1 is a heavy-duty IP66 latching keyswitch for exposed access control, gate, barrier and automatic door applications. Its die-cast aluminium enclosure provides greater mechanical and environmental protection than a standard faceplate-style keyswitch, making it suitable for demanding external installations.

The unit uses double-pole voltage-free switching contacts and a spring-loaded metal key cover. A pre-installed metal cable gland supports a robust weather-resistant installation.
