The APEM Panel Switches IRP7Z222 is a robust autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring IP67 sealing, 1,000,000 cycle mechanical life, and 5 A 250 VAC ratings with tactile feedback, this switch ensures reliable operation in harsh environments. Ideal for demanding electrical systems requiring high durability and environmental resilience.
The APEM Panel Switches IRP7Z222 is a high-reliability autoswitch engineered for industrial use, combining exceptional durability with precise electrical performance. With an IP67 rating for protection against dust and water immersion, this switch maintains functionality in challenging environments. Its 1,000,000-cycle mechanical life and 5 A 250 VAC current rating ensure long-term performance under demanding conditions, while tactile feedback and optional illumination provide intuitive operation. The switch’s robust construction, including a 3 mm panel thickness and 1.6 mm total travel, supports seamless integration into critical control systems without compromising safety or efficiency.
The IRP7Z222 delivers robust electrical performance with a 5 A 250 VAC rating for resistive loads (50,000 cycles) and 5 A 250 VAC for inductive loads (25,000 cycles). Initial contact resistance is 100 mΩ max, ensuring minimal voltage drop during operation. Dielectric strength of 750 Vrms between terminals and 2,000 Vrms between terminals and frame provides exceptional insulation safety.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the IRP7Z222 meets IP67 standards for dust and water resistance, with salt spray testing compliance (IEC 512-6, test 11f). The switch operates reliably across a wide temperature range (-20 °C to +85 °C) and withstands harsh environments without degradation.
With a 1.6 mm total travel (±0.3 mm typical) and 4 N operating force (±2 N), the IRP7Z222 ensures precise actuation while maintaining high mechanical resilience. The 3 mm panel thickness and screw version up to 4 A current rating support robust installation and long-term use in high-stress applications.
The switch features solder lugs for quick connect terminals and a flat round actuator for optional marking. Torque requirements for nut tightening are 0.8 Nm max, ensuring secure assembly without damage. Soldering is safe at 320 °C for up to 3 seconds, facilitating reliable connections in industrial settings.
