The APEM Panel Switches ICR3FAD1 is a robust, sealed autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring a 1.5 mm minimum panel thickness, 1,500 Vrms dielectric strength, and IP67 sealing, this switch ensures reliable operation in harsh environments. With a 5 A 28 VDC rating and tactile feedback, it delivers precise control for demanding systems.
The APEM Panel Switches ICR3FAD1 is a high-reliability, sealed autoswitch engineered for industrial use. This switch combines exceptional electrical performance with robust environmental protection, featuring a minimum panel thickness of 1.5 mm, a dielectric strength of 1,500 Vrms at 50 Hz, and IP67 sealing for dust and water resistance. Designed for applications requiring high cycle life and precise actuation, the ICR3FAD1 delivers consistent performance across a wide temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. Its tactile feedback and flat round actuator provide clear user interaction while maintaining compatibility with a variety of industrial control systems.
The ICR3FAD1 delivers reliable electrical performance with a maximum contact resistance of 50 mΩ and a minimum insulation resistance of 1 GΩ at 500 VDC. It supports a wide range of operating voltages and currents, including 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). The switch features a normally open (NO) contact with silver (gold-plated) materials for optimal conductivity and durability.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the ICR3FAD1 operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to 185°F). Its IP67 rating ensures complete protection against dust and water immersion, making it suitable for outdoor installations and harsh industrial environments. The switch also meets stringent environmental standards with a dielectric strength of 1,500 Vrms at 50 Hz between terminals.
With a total travel of 1.7 mm (±0.3 mm) and an operating force of 4 N (±2 N), the ICR3FAD1 is designed for high-reliability applications. The switch supports up to 1,000,000 cycles of operation, ensuring long-term performance in demanding industrial settings. Its robust construction includes a bushing diameter of 12 mm and a momentary short-case design for reduced behind-panel depth.
The ICR3FAD1 offers enhanced user interaction through tactile feedback and a flat round actuator. Optional features include a glossy actuator finish and marking capabilities, allowing for clear identification in complex control panels. The switch's momentary operation with short case design ensures precise control while minimizing space requirements behind panels.
