The APEM Panel Switches AV091003C240T is a high-performance autoswitch engineered for industrial control systems requiring reliable operation in harsh conditions. With an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance, this switch delivers exceptional electrical safety through 1,000 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC and 2,000 Vrms dielectric strength. Designed for long-term use with up to 1,000,000 cycles of operation, it supports both resistive loads and precise switching in temperature ranges from -30°C to +70°C. The switch features solder lug terminals for easy installation and a short case design optimized for panel integration.
The AV091003C240T delivers precise electrical performance with a maximum initial contact resistance of 50 mΩ. It supports resistive loads up to 4 A at 12 VDC (500,000 cycles) and 2 A at 48 VDC (10,000 cycles). The switch maintains high dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms at 50 Hz between terminals and frame, ensuring safety in high-voltage environments.
Engineered for extreme conditions, this switch operates reliably across a temperature range of -30°C to +70°C. Its IP65 rating provides robust protection against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for outdoor installations and industrial settings where environmental exposure is a concern.
The switch features a 30 mm x 30 mm mounting footprint with solder lug terminals for quick installation. Panel cut-outs of Ø19.2 mm or Ø22.2 mm are standard, allowing for easy integration into standard industrial panels. Minimum pitch for matrix applications is specified to ensure proper spacing and functionality.
With a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles, the AV091003C240T ensures long-term performance in high-demand applications. The switch can withstand hand soldering at 300°C for up to 3 seconds, facilitating maintenance without compromising integrity. Torque requirements of 1.5 Nm to 4 Nm ensure secure fastening without damage.
