They are suitable for navigation controls, bridge communication, lighting, passenger access, power distribution, and security.

Pushbuttons used on deck can be fitted with stainless-steel housings and covered with silicone covers for extra resistance to corrosion. IP65 and IP67-rated switches are available for applications requiring added protection against the penetration of water and other liquids. Various styles of sunlight-readable LED illumination provide easily recognizable warning signals or highly identifiable legends in dimly lit areas.
