The APEM Panel Switches AV031003C240K is a momentary NC/NO switch designed for industrial applications. With IP65 and IP69K sealing, long life performance, and solder lug terminals, this autoswitch ensures reliable operation in harsh environments. Ideal for machinery and equipment requiring robust, sealed switching solutions.
The APEM Panel Switches AV031003C240K is a momentary normally open (NO) switch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This autoswitch delivers exceptional durability through its sealed construction, meeting IP65 and IP69K protection standards to withstand dust, water, and high-temperature conditions. Its long life design, with up to 1,000,000 operational cycles, ensures consistent performance in critical applications where reliability is paramount. The switch features quick-connect solder lug terminals for simplified installation and robust electrical specifications including 1,000 MΩ insulation resistance and 2,000 Vrms dielectric strength.
The AV031003C240K delivers robust electrical characteristics including 1,000 MΩ minimum insulation resistance at 500 VDC and 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz dielectric strength between terminals and frame. This ensures reliable operation in high-voltage environments while maintaining safety standards. Initial contact resistance remains below 50 mΩ max., minimizing power loss during switching.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the switch achieves IP65 and IP69K protection levels. This dual sealing ensures resistance to dust, water, and high-temperature environments, making it suitable for outdoor installations and industrial settings where exposure to harsh elements is common. The operating temperature range of -30 °C to +70 °C further enhances its adaptability across diverse climates.
The switch features a short case design with solder lug quick connect terminals, facilitating straightforward installation. Panel cut-out sizes of Ø19.2 mm or Ø22.2 mm allow for precise mounting on panels ranging from 1 mm to 11 mm thickness. Torque specifications (1.5 Nm min. to 4 Nm max.) ensure secure terminal connections without compromising safety.
Designed for extended service life, the AV031003C240K supports up to 1,000,000 operational cycles. This long life performance, combined with its sealed construction, ensures consistent reliability in demanding applications such as machinery control systems and industrial automation where frequent switching is required.
