Ideal for systems requiring high cycle life and electrical safety.
The APEM Panel Switches ICP3FAD2 is a high-reliability, sealed momentary switch engineered for industrial control systems. Featuring IP67 protection against dust and water, this switch delivers exceptional durability in harsh environments while maintaining precise electrical performance. With a dielectric strength of 1,500 Vrms at 50 Hz, a maximum operating force of 4 N, and a total travel of 1.7 mm, the ICP3FAD2 ensures consistent operation across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Its momentary action with short case design and tactile feedback provides intuitive user interaction, making it suitable for applications requiring high cycle life and electrical safety.
The ICP3FAD2 supports multiple electrical configurations with a dielectric strength of 1,500 Vrms 50 Hz between terminals. It handles resistive loads up to 5 A at 28 VDC (70,000 cycles), 0.2 A at 48 VDC (500,000 cycles), and 0.5 A at 48 VAC (500,000 cycles). Insulation resistance exceeds 1 GΩ at 500 VDC, ensuring reliable electrical isolation.
Engineered for robust mechanical use, the switch features a flat round actuator with tactile feedback and a maximum operating force of 4 N +/- 2 N. Its total travel is 1.7 mm +/- 0.3 mm, and the initial contact resistance remains below 50 mΩ. The panel thickness ranges from 1.5 mm to 4 mm, accommodating various installation requirements.
The ICP3FAD2 is rated IP67, providing complete protection against dust ingress and immersion in water up to 1 meter. This makes it ideal for outdoor installations, marine environments, and industrial settings where exposure to harsh conditions is common. The switch operates reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
With a low-level or mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles, the ICP3FAD2 ensures long-term performance in demanding applications. Its sealed construction and high dielectric strength contribute to extended service life, reducing maintenance needs and downtime in critical systems.
