Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The APEM Panel Switches KL462AKXA125N is a double-pole autoswitch designed for industrial applications. Featuring IP68 sealing for front panel components, 1,000 MΩ insulation resistance, and 2,000 Vrms dielectric strength, this switch ensures robust performance in demanding environments. With options for IP69K sealing and laser-etched symbols, it delivers reliable operation across -40°C to +85°C temperatures.
The APEM Panel Switches KL462AKXA125N is a double-pole autoswitch engineered for high-reliability industrial use. This switch combines patented intuitive ergonomics with laser-etched symbols for clear identification, offering both illuminated and non-illuminated options. Its front panel components are sealed to IP68 standard, while the option for IP69K sealing provides exceptional resistance to harsh conditions, including 96 hours of salt spray testing. The switch maintains low contact resistance (10 mΩ max) and operates within a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, ensuring consistent performance in extreme environments.
The APEM Panel Switches KL462AKXA125N offers robust environmental protection through its sealing options. Front panel components are sealed to IP68 standard (IEC 60529), while the optional IP69K sealing meets DIN 40050-9 specifications for resistance to salt spray testing (96 hours per IEC 512-6, test 11f). This ensures reliable performance in harsh industrial settings, including exposure to moisture, dust, and corrosive environments.
With a dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms at 50 Hz, the switch ensures safe electrical isolation between terminals. The insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ minimum at 500 VDC provides high resistance to leakage currents, critical for maintaining system safety in high-voltage applications. The initial contact resistance of 10 mΩ max ensures minimal voltage drop during operation.
Engineered for long-term durability, the switch delivers a minimum of 150,000 mechanical cycles. Its operating temperature range spans from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for extreme environmental conditions. The double-pole design with silver contact materials ensures stable electrical connections and resistance to corrosion over time.
This switch is ideal for industrial control panels where high reliability and environmental resilience are critical. Its combination of IP68 and optional IP69K sealing, along with robust electrical specifications, makes it suitable for use in marine, chemical processing, and outdoor applications where exposure to harsh conditions is common.
