This 2-pole switch features gold-plated contacts with 200,000 cycles of latching operation, 1 GΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and operates within -40°C to +75°C temperature range. Ideal for high-reliability control systems requiring precise electrical switching.
The APEM Panel Switches FPCR1D1228C1213 is a robust snap-in autoswitch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This 2-pole switch delivers reliable ON/OFF functionality with gold-plated contacts rated for 200,000 latching cycles, ensuring long-term performance in critical applications. Its exceptional insulation resistance of 1 GΩ at 500 VDC and dielectric strength of 1,000 Vrms 50 Hz provide robust protection against electrical faults. The switch operates within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +75°C, making it suitable for extreme conditions. With a compact size and lightweight design, this switch integrates seamlessly into control panels while maintaining high electrical performance and durability.
The FPCR1D1228C1213 delivers precise electrical switching with a maximum current rating of 200 mA at 12 VDC for gold-plated contacts. It maintains low contact resistance (50 mΩ max) and provides high insulation resistance (1 GΩ min. at 500 VDC), ensuring reliable operation in high-voltage environments. The switch also meets stringent dielectric strength requirements of 1,000 Vrms 50 Hz, safeguarding against electrical surges.
Engineered for industrial resilience, this switch withstands 200,000 latching cycles with minimal wear. Its robust construction includes a snap-in design with a panel thickness of 1.5–2.5 mm (with or without gasket), ensuring secure mounting in various panel configurations. The switch requires a maximum torque of 2 Nm to operate, making it suitable for standard installation practices.
The FPCR1D1228C1213 operates effectively across extreme temperatures from -40°C to +75°C, enabling deployment in harsh environments such as outdoor installations or industrial facilities with significant thermal fluctuations. Its compact size and lightweight design (with pad-printed or laser-etched symbols) facilitate integration into space-constrained control panels without compromising functionality.
This switch is ideal for applications requiring high reliability and frequent switching, such as industrial automation systems, control panels, and machinery where consistent performance is critical. The latching mechanism ensures the switch remains in the selected state without continuous activation, reducing maintenance needs and enhancing operational efficiency.
