A new transparent sealing boot is designed to fit today's compact, lever-operated circuit breakers.
Included also are APM's specially designed bushing panel washers for sealed switches.

RFI/EMI suppression and armoured versions are also described.
All boots are UL recognised and are designed to meet MIL-B-5423 specifications.
RoHS and DFARS compliant.
A technical reference section: "Surviving hostile control system environments" is also included, providing valuable industry standards and other practical information.
