Aqua Switch Water-Resistant Touch Button

27/06/2025

The new water-resistant projected capacitive (PCAP) touch button is called the Aqua Switch. While standard PCAP touch products offer basic water resistance, they can still experience false touches when exposed to large amounts of water or running water. To address this issue, we have redesigned the button’s design, structure, hardware, and firmware to reduce liquid noise interference, ensuring that the PCAP touch buttons remain responsive and accurate even under heavy flowing water.

Excellent Water-Resistant Performance

When water is present on the surface of PCAP touch products, the controller often misinterprets the water as a touch input, leading to false touches. To solve this issue, AMT developed the Aqua Switch touch button, which uses self-capacitance sensing technology and offers outstanding water resistance. Even when exposed to a direct water flow of 12.5 liters per minute (equivalent to the IPX5 rating), the touch buttons remain accurate and stable, with no false touches.
