Dortronics Waterproof Push Button Switches are available in two series, both rated for harsh environments. The WR5276-HD22 Series features an IP-66 rating and includes a neoprene gasket, making it ideal for use outdoors in harsh conditions, and in areas such as cleanrooms that require wash-downs. When used with card access systems or automatic door openers, the switches’ double pole, dry contact outputs can be wired to signal a door to unlock. The WR5276-HD28/29 Series is vandal resistant, waterproof and features an IP-65 rating and timer options that can either be fixed or adjustable. Both products are manufactured with brushed stainless steel in standard switch plate sizes with standard engraved legends. Custom plates and text are available with a quick turnaround time.

The one-hour AIA-accredited course will cover the various types of door interlocks, man traps, sally ports and their applications, and the most appropriate use for each type and configuration to meet various design criteria. Attendees will receive a certificate for one AIA learning unit upon completion. The Lunch and Learn course may be conducted at a customer or end user facility, where Dortronics will provide both the educational content and lunch for attendees.
