The APEM Panel Switches FPAR1D1222B1218 is a robust autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring IP69K sealing, 1 GΩ min. insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and 200,000 cycles for latching models, this switch ensures reliable operation in demanding environments. With a 2.5 mm ± 0.5 mm total travel and 8 N ± 2 N operating force, it delivers precise control for critical systems.
The APEM Panel Switches FPAR1D1222B1218 is a high-reliability autoswitch engineered for industrial use, combining stringent environmental resilience with precise mechanical performance. This switch features IP69K protection against harsh conditions, ensuring durability in extreme settings while maintaining electrical integrity through 1 GΩ min. insulation resistance at 500 VDC. Its latching mechanism provides 200,000 cycles of electrical life at full load, making it ideal for applications requiring consistent, long-term operation without frequent maintenance. The switch’s compact design with a 2.5 mm ± 0.5 mm total travel and 8 N ± 2 N operating force ensures smooth integration into tight spaces without compromising functionality.
The FPAR1D1222B1218 delivers reliable electrical performance with a maximum current rating of 4 A at 12 VDC for silver contacts and 200 mA for gold-plated contacts. It features an independent 2-pole configuration with LED control for status indication, using a 12VDC resistor to ensure stable operation. The switch maintains low initial contact resistance (50 mΩ max) and supports 1,000 Vrms 50 Hz dielectric strength for robust electrical isolation.
Engineered for extreme conditions, this switch meets IP69K standards (DIN 40050-9), providing protection against dust, water, and high-pressure cleaning. It operates effectively across a wide temperature range from -40 °C to +75 °C, ensuring consistent performance in both cold and hot industrial environments without degradation.
With a 2.5 mm ± 0.5 mm total travel and 8 N ± 2 N operating force, the switch ensures smooth, repeatable operation with minimal wear. The latching mechanism provides 200,000 cycles of electrical life at full load, while momentary models offer 1 million cycles for high-frequency applications. The 3 Nm max. torque for nut application ensures secure installation without damage.
This autoswitch is ideal for industrial control panels where reliability and environmental resistance are critical. Its compact 24mm threaded bushing design allows easy integration into existing systems, while the green LED indicator provides clear visual feedback for operational status. The switch’s compatibility with solder lugs and laser-etched symbols ensures seamless compatibility with standard industrial wiring practices.
