The APEM Panel Switches KL363DKXA125N is a single-pole, gold-plated industrial switch engineered for demanding environments. This switch delivers exceptional durability with IP68 sealing for front panel components and optional IP69K sealing for enhanced resistance to harsh conditions. Its patented intuitive ergonomics ensures user-friendly operation, while laser-etched symbols and illumination options provide clear visual feedback. Designed to withstand extreme temperatures (-40°C to +85°C), the switch meets stringent electrical standards including 1,000 MΩ insulation resistance at 500 VDC and 2,000 Vrms dielectric strength. With a mechanical life of 150,000 cycles, it is ideal for applications requiring high reliability and long-term performance.
The APEM Panel Switches KL363DKXA125N features IP68 sealing for front panel components, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress. Optional IP69K sealing provides additional resistance to harsh environments, including salt spray testing for 96 hours (IEC 512-6, test 11f). This robust environmental protection makes the switch suitable for outdoor installations and industrial settings with high exposure to moisture and contaminants.
With a minimum insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ at 500 VDC and dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms at 50 Hz, the switch ensures reliable electrical isolation and safety. The initial contact resistance is limited to 10 mΩ max, minimizing power loss and ensuring smooth operation under high current conditions.
Engineered for long-term performance, the switch offers a mechanical life of 150,000 cycles. Its gold-plated contacts provide excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the patented intuitive ergonomics design ensures consistent user interaction even after extensive use.
The switch operates within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for extreme environments. It supports both illuminated and non-illuminated configurations, with laser-etched symbols for precise identification. The single-pole design allows for straightforward integration into control circuits requiring simple on/off functionality.
