The APEM Panel Switches AV - 19 - Tactile delivers robust, tactile feedback for industrial control panels. With IP65 sealing, 1,000 MΩ insulation resistance, and 1,000,000 cycle electrical life, this momentary (NO) switch ensures reliable operation in demanding environments from -30°C to +70°C. Ideal for applications requiring precise actuation and durable performance.
The APEM Panel Switches AV - 19 - Tactile is a high-reliability, momentary normally open (NO) switch designed for industrial control panels. Featuring tactile feedback, IP65 sealing, and a nickel-plated chrome finish, this switch provides precise actuation with a 7 N operating force and 0.7 mm travel. Its robust construction, with a 19.2 mm panel cut-out and 30x30 mm mounting footprint, ensures durability in harsh environments while maintaining electrical performance up to 50 mA at 24 VDC. The switch supports 1,000,000 cycles of operation and is suitable for applications requiring secure, tactile feedback and long-term reliability.
The AV-19 Tactile switch operates within a 50 mA current rating at 24 VDC for resistive loads. It features 1,000 MΩ minimum insulation resistance at 500 VDC and 500 Vrms dielectric strength between terminals, ensuring safe and reliable electrical operation. The switch maintains an initial contact resistance of 100 mΩ max and delivers 1,000,000 cycles of electrical life under full load conditions.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the AV-19 Tactile switch operates across a wide temperature range from -30°C to +70°C. Its IP65 sealing protects against dust and water ingress, while the nickel-plated chrome finish provides corrosion resistance and long-term durability in industrial settings.
With a 0.7 mm (±0.1 mm) travel and 7 N (±2 N) operating force, the switch ensures precise actuation with tactile feedback. The 19.2 mm panel cut-out allows for standard installation in control panels, and the 30x30 mm mounting footprint provides stability for secure mounting on industrial panels.
The switch features a C7 case with a nickel-plated chrome finish, offering a smooth, polished surface that resists wear and corrosion. The actuator is available in flat or curved configurations, with options for stainless steel or varnished polished finishes to suit specific environmental conditions.
