The APEM Panel Switches IAR3F1300 are robust autoswitches designed for demanding industrial environments. These switches feature IP67 front panel sealing, 100 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and 2 A 24 VDC current rating with resistive loads. They offer 1,000,000 cycle electrical life and tactile feedback for reliable operation in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +65°C.
The APEM Panel Switches IAR3F1300 are high-reliability autoswitches engineered for industrial applications requiring exceptional durability and environmental resilience. With IP67 front panel sealing, these switches provide protection against dust, water, and salt spray, making them suitable for harsh conditions. The switches deliver 100 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, 2 A 24 VDC current rating with resistive loads, and 1,000,000 cycle electrical life under full load. Their tactile feedback ensures precise operation, while the 7 N operating force and 1.5 mm total travel accommodate a range of actuation needs. Designed to withstand temperatures from -20°C to +65°C, the IAR3F1300 series combines robust construction with user-friendly functionality for critical industrial control systems.
The APEM Panel Switches IAR3F1300 operate within a 24 VDC electrical range, supporting up to 2 A current with resistive loads. They feature a 100 mΩ max initial contact resistance and 100 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, ensuring reliable electrical performance in demanding environments. The switches are rated for 1,000,000 cycles of electrical life at full load, providing long-term durability without degradation.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the IAR3F1300 switches meet IP67 standards for front panel sealing, protecting against dust, water immersion, and salt spray (IEC 512-6, test 11f). They are resistant to frost, sand, and hydrocarbons, with a temperature range from -20°C to +65°C, making them ideal for outdoor and industrial settings where environmental factors are critical.
With a total travel of 1.5 mm +/- 0.3 mm and an operating force of 7 N +/- 2 N, the switches ensure smooth and consistent actuation. The rectangular rocker-action caps (10.1 x 12.5 / 18.65 / 25.0 mm) offer tactile feedback and can be combined into custom keyboards, enhancing user experience and adaptability in control panels.
The switches feature flying leads for easy installation and are designed to withstand 500 Vrms dielectric strength. Their robust construction includes front panel sealing to IP65 and IP67 standards, ensuring long-term reliability in industrial applications without compromising on performance.
