Featuring IP65 sealing, 1,000 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and 4 A 12 VDC contacts with 500,000 cycles, this switch ensures reliable performance in harsh environments. Ideal for automation systems requiring high mechanical life and robust electrical characteristics.
The APEM AV191003A940T Panel Switch is a high-reliability, normally open (NO) switch engineered for demanding industrial environments. With an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance, this switch delivers exceptional durability and performance across a wide temperature range from -30°C to +70°C. Its robust construction, featuring silver contacts and screw terminals, ensures long-term stability and minimal contact resistance (50 mΩ max.), making it suitable for applications requiring high cycle life and electrical safety.
The AV191003A940T delivers precise electrical characteristics with a maximum contact resistance of 50 mΩ and robust insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ at 500 VDC. Its dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms at 50 Hz ensures safe operation under high-voltage conditions, while the 4 A 12 VDC and 2 A 48 VDC ratings support diverse industrial loads with specified cycle lives.
Engineered for extreme conditions, this switch operates reliably between -30°C and +70°C and features IP65 sealing to protect against dust and water ingress. The robust construction ensures consistent performance in harsh industrial settings without compromising safety or functionality.
With a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles and a torque specification of 1.5 Nm to 4 Nm for terminal tightening, the AV191003A940T maintains long-term reliability. The switch also supports hand soldering at 300°C for 3 seconds, enabling flexible installation methods.
The switch has a standard mounting size of 30 mm x 30 mm (1.181 x 1.181 inches) and a panel cut-out diameter of either 19.2 mm or 22.2 mm. It accommodates panel thicknesses from 1 mm to 11 mm and requires a minimum pitch of 30 mm for matrix applications.
