Carling Technologies set the standard for performance
and aesthetics with the widely successful, often
imitated but never duplicated, V-Series rocker switches.
Building further upon that platform, Carling has once
again raised the bar with the fully sealed W-Series. The
W-Series’ traditional appearance features complete IP68
protection, including below the panel, where the critical
connection is made from wiring harness. When used in
conjunction with the integrated connector, the totally
submersible W-Series provides a seal for up to ten
individual wires, assuring compatibility with even the
most complex circuitry.
The W-Series also oers a wide variety of accoutrements
including endless illumination options featuring dual
level and multicolor LEDs, progressive and hazard
warning circuits, ratings up to 10A 24V, choice of
paddle, rocker, locking or laser etched actuators,
hundreds of standard legend choices and the electrical
performance and reliability that is the hallmark of
Carling Technologies products.
