"With the growing significance of IP69K in industrial environments and washdown procedures becoming more stringent due to the enactment of FSMA, we redesigned our line of non-metallic disconnect switches to ensure protection in food processing environments and wet locations," said Andrew Taddoni, product manager, Leviton Commercial & Industrial. "We are proud to say that our full line of disconnect switches carry the most comprehensive watertight ratings for safety in any application across the industry."
