The APEM Panel Switches KL36HAKTH226N0138 is a single-pole autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring IP68 sealing for front panel components and optional IP69K panel sealing, this switch offers robust environmental protection, laser-etched symbols, and illuminated operation. With a mechanical life of 150,000 cycles and operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C, it ensures reliable performance in demanding conditions.
The APEM Panel Switches KL36HAKTH226N0138 is a single-pole autoswitch engineered for industrial environments requiring high durability and environmental resilience. This switch provides IP68 protection for front panel components and optionally IP69K panel sealing, ensuring resistance to dust, water, and salt spray. Its patented ergonomic design, laser-etched symbols, and illuminated operation (24V white LED) enhance usability and safety in harsh conditions. With a mechanical life of 150,000 cycles and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, this switch delivers consistent performance across extreme industrial settings.
The APEM Panel Switches KL36HAKTH226N0138 offers robust environmental resilience. Front panel components are sealed to IP68, while optional IP69K panel sealing provides enhanced protection against salt spray for 96 hours (per IEC 512-6, test 11f). This ensures reliable operation in marine, chemical, and outdoor industrial environments where exposure to moisture and contaminants is common.
With an insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ minimum at 500 VDC and dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz minimum, this switch ensures safe electrical isolation and robust performance under high-voltage conditions. The initial contact resistance of 10 mΩ max guarantees low resistance during operation, minimizing power loss and heat generation.
Engineered for long-term industrial use, the switch features a mechanical life of 150,000 cycles minimum, ensuring consistent performance over extended periods. Its operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C allows operation in extreme environments, from Arctic conditions to high-heat industrial processes.
The patented intuitive ergonomics and laser-etched symbols enhance user experience and safety. The switch is designed for one protected position, ensuring secure handling and clear identification without compromising operational efficiency.
