The DS Series interlock pushbutton switches feature rugged copper alloy, silver-plated common terminals and F5-rated, gold-plated over silver alloy contacts for robust performance. Their dielectric strength is measured at 1500 V (50 - 60 Hz at sea level) and insulated to 100 mΩ (minimum) with initial contact resistance rated at 30 mΩ.

The reliable single- or double-pole double-throw DS Series switches are RoHS-compliant and made of halogen-free material.
