Pushbutton switch Karlik 10WHE-2, IP54, 250 V AC, 10 A

Karlik 10WHE-2 is a pushbutton switch intended for control and switching tasks in residential, commercial and light industrial environments. The device is rated for 250 V AC and a nominal output current of 10 A, and its IP54 enclosure provides protection against dust ingress and water splashes. The switch belongs to the JUNIOR series, designed for locations with dust and moisture exposure where a compact, mechanically robust control element is required.

Advantages

The Karlik 10WHE-2 combines a compact pushbutton design with IP54 protection, enabling reliable operation in workshops, garages and sheltered outdoor areas. Its 250 V AC rating and 10 A switching capacity allow it to control lighting circuits, simple motor loads and general-purpose control lines. The switch is built for straightforward installation in standard panels and enclosures and provides tactile actuation with clear on/off function.

Suitable for

• Switching lighting circuits in residential and commercial premises
• Control inputs for machinery and equipment in workshops and warehouses
• General electrical panels and distribution boxes in sheltered outdoor locations
• Terraces, gazebos and other high-humidity but non-submerged areas

Key specifications

• Rated voltage: 250 V AC
• Nominal output current: 10 A
• Protection class: IP54 (protection against dust ingress and water splashes)
• Actuation type: pushbutton
• Series: JUNIOR

How to use

Install the Karlik 10WHE-2 pushbutton in a suitable panel cut-out according to local electrical regulations. Wire the input and output conductors to the terminal points, ensuring the circuit is de-energised during installation. Use the switch to make or break the controlled circuit by pressing the actuator; observe the rated voltage and current limits to avoid overloading. The IP54 rating permits use in dusty or splash-prone environments but does not allow direct exposure to jets of water or submersion.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term operation, mount the switch in sheltered locations protected from direct rain and high-pressure water, and avoid installation where persistent fine dust or water jets are present. Verify compatibility with the connected load and ensure regular inspection of terminals and the enclosure for ingress of dust or moisture.
