The APEM Panel Switches AV091003A940 is a high-performance autoswitch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This panel switch delivers exceptional reliability with a robust IP65 sealing rating to protect against dust and water ingress, 1,000 MΩ minimum insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and 2,000 Vrms dielectric strength for terminal-to-frame safety. Designed for long-term operation, it achieves 1,000,000 cycles for low-level or mechanical life, making it ideal for applications requiring frequent switching without degradation. The switch features a 30 mm x 30 mm mounting footprint, 1.5 Nm to 4 Nm torque range for secure installation, and operates within a wide temperature range of -30 °C to +70 °C. Its screw terminals and normally open (NO) electrical function ensure precise control in automation systems.
The APEM Panel Switches AV091003A940 operates with a maximum current/voltage rating of 4 A at 12 VDC for A contacts (500,000 cycles) and 2 A at 48 VDC for C contacts (10,000 cycles). Initial contact resistance is 50 mΩ maximum, ensuring minimal voltage drop during operation. The switch supports hand soldering at 300 °C for 3 seconds, facilitating reliable assembly in production environments.
Engineered for extreme conditions, this switch maintains functionality across a broad temperature range from -30 °C to +70 °C. Its IP65 sealing rating provides protection against dust and water, ensuring reliable performance in industrial settings where environmental exposure is a concern. The switch also features a 19.2 mm or 22.2 mm panel cut-out size for seamless integration into control panels.
The switch requires a panel thickness of 1 mm to 11 mm for optimal installation. Mounting is achieved via a 30 mm x 30 mm (1.181 x 1.181) footprint, with a torque range of 1.5 Nm to 4 Nm for nut tightening. The minimum pitch for matrix applications is specified to ensure proper spacing and functionality in panel layouts.
