Ideal for demanding electrical systems requiring precise switching and high durability.
The APEM Panel Switches IRR3P422L0Y is a high-reliability microswitch-based autoswitch engineered for industrial environments. This switch combines IP67-rated sealing, tactile feedback, and a flat round actuator for precise operation in challenging conditions. With a mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles and a 5 A current rating for resistive loads, it ensures consistent performance in applications requiring frequent switching without compromising safety or longevity.
The IRR3P422L0Y delivers precise electrical switching with a maximum current rating of 5 A for resistive loads at 250 VAC. It supports 50,000 cycles for function 7 and 25,000 cycles for function 8, ensuring durability in high-frequency applications. The switch maintains a low initial contact resistance of 100 mΩ max. and features robust dielectric strength (750 Vrms between terminals, 2,000 Vrms between terminals and frame) to prevent electrical faults.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the switch meets IP67 standards for dust and water resistance, with salt spray testing compliance (IEC 512-6, test 11f). It operates across a wide temperature range from -20 °C to +85 °C (-40 °F to 185 °F), making it suitable for outdoor installations and harsh industrial settings without performance degradation.
With a total travel of 1.6 mm (±0.3 mm typical) and operating force of 4 N (±2 N), the switch ensures smooth, repeatable actuation. The mechanical life of 1,000,000 cycles demonstrates exceptional longevity, while the 0.8 Nm max. torque for nut tightening provides secure installation without damage.
The switch features straight PC terminals, a flat round actuator for optional marking, and a screw version up to 4 A. It is available with illuminated or non-illuminated options, and the central lens design allows for easy integration into control panels. The 3 mm panel thickness (max.) ensures compatibility with standard industrial panel assemblies.
