The APEM Panel Switches ICR3FAD4 is a robust, sealed autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring IP67 sealing, tactile feedback, and a flat round actuator, it delivers reliable operation in extreme environments with a wide temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). This switch supports high current ratings (up to 5A 28VDC) and offers 1,000,000 mechanical cycles for long-term durability.
The APEM Panel Switches ICR3FAD4 is a high-reliability, sealed autoswitch engineered for demanding industrial environments. With IP67 protection against dust and water, this switch ensures uninterrupted operation in harsh conditions while maintaining precise electrical performance. Its flat round actuator provides tactile feedback for user confidence, and the switch supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to 185°F). The ICR3FAD4 delivers exceptional durability with 1,000,000 mechanical cycles and handles high current ratings (up to 5A 28VDC) for critical applications where reliability is paramount.
The ICR3FAD4 operates within a wide voltage range (28VDC, 48VDC, 48VAC) and supports high current ratings for resistive loads. It delivers 5A at 28VDC with 70,000 cycles, 0.2A at 48VDC with 500,000 cycles, and 0.5A at 48VAC with 500,000 cycles. The switch maintains low initial contact resistance (50 mΩ max) and high insulation resistance (1 GΩ min. at 500 VDC) for stable electrical performance.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the ICR3FAD4 operates across a broad temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and features IP67 sealing to protect against dust and water ingress. This ensures reliable performance in challenging industrial settings without compromising safety or functionality.
With a total travel of 1.7 mm (±0.3 mm typical) and operating force of 4 N (±2 N), the switch provides precise actuation while maintaining robust mechanical resilience. The switch is designed for 1,000,000 mechanical cycles, making it ideal for applications requiring long-term reliability.
The ICR3FAD4 includes a momentary operation with short case design and reduced behind-panel depth for space-efficient installation. Its flat round actuator supports optional marking and glossy finishes, while the tactile feedback ensures user confidence during operation.
