The APEM Panel Switches IAR3F1900 is a robust autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring IP67 front panel sealing, 100 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and 1,000,000 cycle electrical life, this switch ensures reliable operation in harsh environments. With a 2 mm long travel and rectangular rocker caps, it delivers precise control for demanding systems.
The APEM Panel Switches IAR3F1900 is a high-reliability autoswitch engineered for industrial environments where durability and precision are critical. This switch combines IP67 front panel sealing with exceptional electrical performance, including 100 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC and 1,000,000 cycles of electrical life under full load. Its rectangular rocker-action caps, available in three sizes (10.1 x 12.5 / 18.65 / 25.0 mm), provide tactile feedback and long travel (2 mm), making it ideal for applications requiring robust, low-force operation in extreme conditions.
The IAR3F1900 delivers reliable electrical operation with a maximum current/voltage rating of 2 A at 24 VDC for resistive loads. It features an initial contact resistance of 100 mΩ max and operates within a temperature range of -20 °C to +65 °C. The switch maintains 100 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC, ensuring robust electrical isolation even in demanding industrial settings.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the IAR3F1900 meets IP67 standards for front panel sealing, providing protection against dust, water immersion, and hydrocarbons. It is also resistant to frost and salt spray (IEC 512-6, test 11f), making it suitable for outdoor and harsh industrial environments where exposure to elements is common.
With a panel thickness of 7 mm max and a total travel of 1.5 mm +/- 0.3 mm, the IAR3F1900 ensures precise and repeatable operation. The switch requires a torque of 0.5 to 1 Nm max. applied to the nut, and its rectangular rocker caps deliver tactile feedback for user confidence during operation.
The IAR3F1900's cap series can be combined into a custom keyboard configuration, allowing flexibility in layout and functionality. This feature enables tailored solutions for specific industrial applications without compromising the switch's robust performance characteristics.
