The APEM Panel Switches IRR3V222 is a high-reliability microswitch engineered for industrial control systems. This autoswitch combines exceptional durability with precise functionality, offering a 1,000,000-cycle mechanical life and 5 A current rating for resistive loads. Its IP67-rated construction ensures protection against dust, water, and salt spray, while the tactile feedback feature provides immediate user confirmation during operation. The switch operates within a wide temperature range of -20°C to +85°C (-40°F to 185°F), making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. With a flat round actuator for optional marking and screw terminals, the IRR3V222 delivers a balance of performance, safety, and ease of integration.
The IRR3V222 operates with a maximum current of 5 A for resistive loads at 250 VAC, supporting 50,000 cycles for function 7 and 25,000 cycles for function 8. It features a dielectric strength of 750 Vrms between terminals and 2,000 Vrms between terminals and frame. Initial contact resistance is 100 mΩ max, ensuring minimal electrical interference during operation.
Engineered for extreme conditions, the IRR3V222 withstands temperatures from -20°C to +85°C (-40°F to 185°F). It meets IP67 standards for dust and water resistance, with salt spray protection per IEC 512-6, test 11f. The switch also handles 500 VDC insulation resistance, ensuring safety in high-voltage environments.
With a total travel of 1.6 mm (±0.3 mm typical), the switch requires an operating force of 4 N (±2 N). The maximum torque for nut application is 0.8 Nm, and it supports soldering at 320°C for up to 3 seconds. The panel thickness is 3 mm (max), providing structural integrity without compromising functionality.
The IRR3V222 is ideal for industrial control panels where durability and precise switching are critical. Its tactile feedback and flat round actuator facilitate user-friendly operation, while the screw terminals ensure secure connections. The switch is designed for applications requiring high reliability in demanding environments, such as manufacturing equipment, automation systems, and heavy machinery.
