Standards & Certifications
Flammability Standards: Actuator and lower case of glass fiber reinforced polyester and case of glass fiber reinforced
polyamide UL94V-0
The SM series devices have not been tested for UL recognition and CSA certification.
These switches are designed for use in a low-voltage, low-current circuit.
When used as intended in a low-voltage, low-current circuit, the results do not produce
hazardous energy.
