C&K ZMx the Sealed IP67 family of snap-acting switches

ZMx, the Sealed IP67 family of  snap-acting switches (ZMW, ZMS, ZMSM, ZMV and ZMT) is often used in automotive interior applications when detect mechanisms are required.C&K is now extending this family by integrating encapsulated resistors with wire leads. This kind of solution is ideal for EV plug designs as this function allows diagnostics at component level.
