The APEM Panel Switches IAR5F1500 is a high-performance autoswitch engineered for industrial use, combining exceptional durability with environmental resilience. With a 1,000,000-cycle electrical life at full load, IP67 front panel sealing, and resistance to frost, sand, and hydrocarbons, this switch delivers consistent performance in challenging conditions. Its compact 7 mm panel thickness and 1.5 mm total travel make it suitable for applications requiring precise actuation and robust construction.
The IAR5F1500 features IP67 front panel sealing, meeting IEC 60529 standards for dust and water resistance. It is also certified against IEC 512-6 salt spray testing (test 11f), ensuring long-term reliability in marine, chemical, or outdoor environments. The switch operates effectively in temperatures ranging from -20 °C to +65 °C, making it suitable for extreme conditions.
With a maximum current rating of 2 A at 24 VDC for resistive loads, the IAR5F1500 delivers stable operation under typical industrial conditions. The switch maintains an initial contact resistance of 100 mΩ max and provides 100 MΩ minimum insulation resistance at 500 VDC, ensuring safety and efficiency in electrical circuits.
Engineered for over 1,000,000 cycles of electrical operation at full load, the IAR5F1500 ensures extended service life without degradation. Its resistance to frost, sand, and hydrocarbons, combined with a robust construction, makes it ideal for applications where environmental exposure is a concern.
The switch offers a 1.5 mm total travel with a 7 mm panel thickness, providing precise actuation while maintaining compact dimensions. The cap series can be integrated into custom keyboards, enabling flexible system design without compromising performance.
