The APEM Panel Switches 1222C6 is a precision-engineered, normally closed (NC) switch designed for demanding industrial environments. Constructed with silver contacts and a 5 mm panel thickness, this switch ensures high reliability and safety compliance. Its robust electrical characteristics, including an initial contact resistance of 10 mΩ and dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz between terminals and 3,000 Vrms 50 Hz between terminals and frame, make it suitable for critical control applications where precise switching and long-term durability are essential.
The APEM Panel Switches 1222C6 operates with silver contacts rated for 4 A at 250 VAC and 8 A at 125 VAC, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of industrial loads. Its electrical life of 10,000 cycles at full load guarantees long-term reliability in high-demand applications. The switch maintains an initial contact resistance of 10 mΩ, minimizing power loss during operation.
Engineered to withstand extreme conditions, the switch operates within a temperature range of -20°C to +55°C, making it ideal for both cold and hot industrial environments. Its insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ min. at 500 VDC and dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz between terminals and 3,000 Vrms 50 Hz between terminals and frame ensure robust electrical isolation and safety.
The APEM Panel Switches 1222C6 meets stringent international safety standards, including double break NF (EN 61058-1), UL, and CSA approvals. This certification ensures the switch provides reliable performance while minimizing risks in critical industrial applications.
With a panel thickness of 5 mm max., the switch is designed for secure mounting on standard industrial panels. The plunger color is red, and the total travel for normally open (NO) contacts is 4.5 mm +/- 0.3 mm, while normally closed (NC) contacts have a travel of 3.5 mm +/- 0.3 mm. The maximum torque required for installation is 1.50 Nm (1.10 ft.lb).
