Sealed Touch-Pad Switches
 |  |
Rectangle | Round |
Suitable for areas with space limitations, these switches have a low profile and a small footprint. They lay flat or mount to a wall. Typically used in start/stop and door opening applications, switches can also be placed underneath objects to alert when the object is removed. All have a sealed housing that resists water and alcohols (not suitable for continuous contact).

Surface-Mount Temperature Switches
 |
Often used to control heat cable output, these switches maintain your surface’s temperature by turning equipment on or off when they reach a set temperature. They actuate when the temperature rises to the setpoint and reset when the temperature falls below the reset point. Since they're SPDT (single pole, double throw) switches, they control one circuit and can either be wired to turn one device from on to off (normally closed) or from off to on (normally open). Wire them normally closed to power a heater—when the temperature rises to the setpoint, the heater will turn off until the temperature falls below the reset point. Or wire them normally open to turn on alarms or other devices when the temperature rises above the setpoint. Their setpoint isn’t adjustable, so they’re easy to set up and there’s no risk of unintentional changes.
CSA-US Certified—CSA-US certified switches meet American safety standards.
CSA Certified—CSA certified switches meet Canadian safety standards.
