The APEM Panel Switches IRR3F462 is a high-reliability, sealed autoswitch engineered for industrial environments. This panel switch delivers exceptional durability with an IP67 rating for protection against dust and water immersion, and a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles. Designed for high-stress applications, it supports 5 A 250 VAC loads with resistive loads, offering 50,000 cycles for function 7 and 25,000 cycles for function 8. The switch features tactile feedback, a flat round actuator for optional marking, and operates within a temperature range of -20 °C to +85 °C. Its screw version handles up to 4 A, and the sealed construction ensures long-term performance in challenging conditions.
The IRR3F462 delivers reliable electrical performance with a dielectric strength of 750 Vrms between terminals and 2,000 Vrms between terminals and frame. It supports 5 A 250 VAC loads with resistive loads, providing 50,000 cycles for function 7 and 25,000 cycles for function 8. The initial contact resistance is 100 mΩ max., ensuring minimal voltage drop during operation.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the switch withstands salt spray testing (IEC 512-6, test 11f) and operates within a temperature range of -20 °C to +85 °C (-40 °F to 185 °F). Its IP67 rating guarantees protection against dust and water immersion, making it suitable for outdoor and harsh industrial settings.
With a total travel of 1.6 mm (±0.3 mm), the switch requires an operating force of 4 N ± 2 N. The flat round actuator provides tactile feedback and supports optional marking, while the screw version handles up to 4 A current. The panel thickness is 3 mm max., ensuring structural integrity without compromising installation flexibility.
The IRR3F462 features flying leads for easy terminal connection and is designed for soldering at 320 °C max. for 3 seconds. Its sealed construction prevents environmental contamination, and the IP67 rating ensures long-term reliability in demanding applications. The switch is ideal for integration into industrial control panels where durability and precision are critical.
