Hi All
Has anyone ever come across a washdown rated Estop?

Google is failing me!

Look at C3 Controls. I don't know if they do or not.

You probably won't find IP68, most mfrs will jump from IP67 to IP69K. Google finds a lot of IP69K options

I would recommend the sealed capacitive touch guard style
http://www.rockfordsystems.com/online/pbfs/standardpalmbuttons.cfm

Or what I have done (being a cheap ***) is take an inductive prox and depending on application use orange safety pull cord that pulls a metal target away from sensor. (no matter what you need a SIL II or SIL III safety relay (like allen bradley AB guardmaster, or phoenix contact etc.)
