The APEM Panel Switches FPDR3B1428X0X is a high-reliability autoswitch engineered for industrial control panels. This switch combines a compact form factor with exceptional electrical performance, featuring gold-plated contacts that support up to 200 mA at 12 VDC. Its momentary operation ensures precise control with an electrical life of 1 million cycles, while the snap-in or threaded bushing versions accommodate standard panel installations. The switch operates within a wide temperature range of -40 °C to +75 °C, making it suitable for harsh environments and continuous use in automation systems.
The FPDR3B1428X0X delivers precise electrical control with a maximum current rating of 200 mA at 12 VDC for gold-plated contacts. Its electrical life exceeds 1 million cycles for momentary operation, ensuring long-term reliability in industrial systems. The switch maintains an initial contact resistance of 50 mΩ max and provides robust insulation resistance of 1 GΩ min. at 500 VDC, critical for preventing electrical faults in demanding environments.
Engineered for extreme conditions, this switch operates within a temperature range of -40 °C to +75 °C, accommodating both cold and hot industrial settings. Its dielectric strength of 1,000 Vrms 50 Hz min. ensures protection against electrical surges, while the snap-in or threaded bushing versions provide secure mounting in standard panel installations without compromising performance.
The FPDR3B1428X0X offers two installation options: snap-in versions with panel gaskets (1.5–2.5 mm) and threaded bushing versions (1–9 mm max). This versatility allows integration into diverse panel systems, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure while maintaining the switch's compact size and lightweight design.
With a total travel of 2.8 mm ± 0.5 mm and an operating force of 8 N ± 2 N, the switch ensures smooth, consistent operation under repeated use. The gold-plated contacts provide superior corrosion resistance and extended service life, while the switch's electrical life of 1 million cycles for momentary models supports high-demand applications without frequent replacement.
