The APEM Panel Switches IRR3S462 is a robust, sealed autoswitch designed for industrial applications. With an IP67 rating, 1,000,000 cycle life, and 5 A 250 VAC rating, it ensures reliable operation in harsh environments. This switch offers tactile feedback, optional illumination, and a flat round actuator for precise control in demanding systems.
The APEM Panel Switches IRR3S462 is a high-reliability, sealed autoswitch engineered for industrial environments where durability and precision are critical. Featuring an IP67 rating for protection against dust and water immersion, this switch delivers exceptional mechanical life (1,000,000 cycles) and electrical performance, including a 5 A 250 VAC rating for resistive loads. Its tactile feedback ensures precise user interaction, while optional illumination and a flat round actuator provide flexibility for marking and integration into control panels. Designed to withstand extreme temperatures (-20 °C to +85 °C) and corrosive conditions (salt spray testing), the IRR3S462 is ideal for applications requiring long-term, uninterrupted operation in challenging industrial settings.
The IRR3S462 delivers reliable electrical operation with a 5 A 250 VAC rating for resistive loads, supporting 50,000 cycles. It features a dielectric strength of 750 Vrms between terminals and 2,000 Vrms between terminals and frame, ensuring robust insulation. The initial contact resistance is 100 mΩ max., and it operates with a 4 N ± 2 N force, providing consistent performance under varying loads.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the IRR3S462 withstands temperatures from -20 °C to +85 °C (-40 °F to 185 °F) and passes salt spray testing (IEC 512-6, test 11f). Its IP67 rating guarantees protection against dust and water immersion, making it suitable for outdoor or harsh industrial environments where exposure to elements is common.
With a 3 mm panel thickness and solder lug terminals, the IRR3S462 is designed for secure installation. The switch requires a maximum torque of 0.8 Nm when tightening the nut, and soldering can be performed at 320 °C for up to 3 seconds. Its flat round actuator allows for optional marking, enhancing identification in complex control panels.
The switch exhibits a total travel of 1.6 mm (±0.3 mm) and a force of 2 N, ensuring smooth operation with minimal user effort. Its tactile feedback provides immediate confirmation of activation, while the screw version supports up to 4 A continuous current. The switch is designed for normally open (NO) electrical functions, ensuring precise control in industrial automation systems.
