The APEM Panel Switches IMR7Z462 is a robust autoswitch designed for industrial applications. With an IP67 sealing rating, 1 GΩ min. insulation resistance at 500 VDC, and a 1.7 mm total travel, this switch ensures reliable operation in harsh environments. Ideal for high-current DC circuits up to 3 A at 28 VDC.
The APEM Panel Switches IMR7Z462 is a high-reliability autoswitch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This switch delivers exceptional durability with a sealed IP67 rating, ensuring protection against dust, water, and corrosive elements. Its robust construction supports up to 1,000,000 cycles of operation, making it suitable for critical applications requiring long-term performance in extreme conditions. The switch features a flat round actuator for optional NO/NC marking and a 2 mm long travel design, allowing for precise control in high-voltage DC systems.
The IMR7Z462 operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, supporting electrical functions including NC/NO contacts. It delivers a maximum current of 3 A at 28 VDC with resistive loads, and maintains an initial contact resistance of 100 mΩ max. The switch also features a dielectric strength of 500 Vrms between terminals, ensuring safe operation in high-voltage environments.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the IMR7Z462 withstands shock resistance of 50 g (11 ms) and salt spray testing per IEC 512-6, test 11f. Its storage temperature range spans -40°C to +85°C, and it maintains performance in environments with high humidity or exposure to corrosive elements due to the IP67 rating.
With a panel thickness ranging from 1.5 mm to 10 mm, the IMR7Z462 offers versatile mounting options. The switch achieves 1,000,000 cycles of operation under full load, with a torque requirement of 1 Nm (metal nut) or 1.5 Nm (plastic nut) for secure installation without compromising reliability.
The IMR7Z462's cap series can be combined into a custom keyboard, enabling tailored solutions for complex control systems. Its flat round actuator design supports optional NO/NC marking, making it ideal for applications requiring precise switching in industrial automation, power distribution, and machinery control systems.
