XB2-EA131 Flush-mounted Fog Horn Button

XB2-EA131 Flush-mounted Fog Horn Button

Product Introduction

The Marine Flush-mounted Fog Horn Button is a precision-engineered momentary switch designed for seamless integration into ship bridge consoles, wing control panels, and exterior deck housings. Built to meet the rigorous demands of the marine industry, this unit provides a reliable, low-profile interface for manual activation of fog horns, air horns, and other sound signaling devices in compliance with COLREGS.

Its flush-mounted design offers a clean, professional finish while protecting the actuator from accidental impact or snagging. When installed, the button sits level with the panel surface, making it ideal for modern bridge layouts where space optimization and ergonomics are priorities. Constructed from marine-grade corrosion-resistant materials (such as chromed brass or reinforced polymers), it delivers long-lasting performance in salt-laden environments.

The unit features a robust momentary contact mechanism, ensuring a crisp electrical signal with each press to trigger horn solenoids or automatic controller inputs. Its watertight sealing (typically IP66 or IP67) guarantees complete protection against water jets, heavy seas, and humidity, ensuring dependable operation when you need it most—during fog, maneuvering, or emergency situations.
