The APEM AV021003C900 is a high-reliability momentary NC/NO panel switch engineered for industrial automation systems. This switch delivers exceptional environmental resilience through its IP65 and IP69K sealed construction, ensuring protection against dust, water, and harsh conditions. With a minimum contact resistance of 50 mΩ and an insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ at 500 VDC, it meets stringent electrical safety standards. The switch operates within a wide temperature range of -30°C to +70°C and features a long mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles, making it suitable for critical applications where reliability and durability are paramount.
The AV021003C900 delivers precise electrical performance with a minimum insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ at 500 VDC and dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz between terminals and frame. Its initial contact resistance remains below 50 mΩ, ensuring minimal voltage drop during operation. These specifications support reliable switching in high-voltage industrial environments without compromising safety or efficiency.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the AV021003C900 features dual sealing: IP65 for protection against dust and water jets, and IP69K for resistance to high-pressure, high-temperature cleaning processes. This dual sealing ensures the switch maintains performance in harsh industrial settings, including those with frequent exposure to cleaning agents or extreme environmental conditions.
With a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles and a torque specification of 1.5 Nm min. to 4 Nm max. for terminal tightening, the AV021003C900 withstands repeated use without degradation. The switch is designed for installation in panels up to 11 mm thick, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of industrial enclosures.
The AV021003C900 uses screw terminals for secure connection and is compatible with standard panel thicknesses from 1 mm to 11 mm. Its mounting dimensions (30 mm x 30 mm) allow for easy integration into industrial control panels, while the panel cut-out sizes (Ø19.2 mm or Ø22.2 mm) ensure precise alignment during installation.
