The APEM Panel Switches ICR3PAD2 is a robust, sealed autoswitch designed for industrial applications. With an IP67 rating, it offers reliable operation in harsh environments, featuring tactile feedback, a flat round actuator, and a maximum current rating of 5 A at 28 VDC. Its exceptional insulation resistance (1 GΩ min. at 500 VDC) and dielectric strength (1,500 Vrms 50 Hz) ensure safe and durable performance across temperatures from -40 °C to +85 °C.
The APEM Panel Switches ICR3PAD2 is a high-reliability, sealed autoswitch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This panel switch delivers precise control with a flat round actuator, tactile feedback, and optional glossy finish for enhanced usability. Its IP67 sealing provides protection against dust and water immersion, making it ideal for applications where environmental resilience is critical. The switch supports a wide operating temperature range (-40 °C to +85 °C), ensuring consistent performance in extreme conditions. With a maximum current rating of 5 A at 28 VDC and 0.5 A at 48 VAC, it accommodates a variety of load types while maintaining a long service life of up to 1,000,000 cycles. The switch's robust construction, including a 1.5 mm minimum panel thickness and 1.7 mm total travel, ensures durability and precise actuation without compromising on electrical safety.
The ICR3PAD2 delivers reliable electrical performance with a maximum current rating of 5 A at 28 VDC (70,000 cycles) and 0.5 A at 48 VAC (500,000 cycles). It features an initial contact resistance of 50 mΩ max., ensuring minimal voltage drop under load. The switch operates within a wide temperature range (-40 °C to +85 °C), maintaining consistent functionality in extreme environments.
Engineered for harsh industrial settings, the ICR3PAD2 includes IP67 sealing, protecting against dust ingress and temporary immersion in water. This robust sealing ensures long-term reliability without compromising on electrical safety, even in challenging conditions.
With a panel thickness of 1.5 mm (min.) to 4 mm (max.), the switch provides structural integrity while allowing precise actuation. The total travel of 1.7 mm (±0.3 mm) ensures smooth operation, and the operating force of 2 N allows for easy activation without excessive effort.
The switch offers tactile feedback for immediate user confirmation, a momentary operation mode with short case design, and reduced behind-panel depth for compact installations. Its flat round actuator supports optional marking and glossy finishes, enhancing usability in high-visibility environments.
