The APEM Panel Switches KL46CAKKG226N0164 is a high-reliability double-pole autoswitch engineered for demanding industrial environments. This switch delivers exceptional durability with IP68 sealing for front panel components and the option for IP69K panel sealing, meeting stringent environmental standards including 96 hours of salt spray resistance. Its patented intuitive ergonomics, laser-etched symbols, and illuminated or non-illuminated operation provide precise control and user-friendly operation across a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The switch ensures minimal contact resistance (10 mΩ max) and robust electrical performance with dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz and insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ min. at 500 VDC.
The APEM Panel Switches KL46CAKKG226N0164 offers robust environmental resilience. Front panel components are sealed to IP68, while optional IP69K panel sealing meets DIN 40050-9 standards. This switch demonstrates 96 hours of salt spray resistance per IEC 512-6 (test 11f), ensuring reliable performance in harsh marine, chemical, or industrial settings.
With an initial contact resistance of 10 mΩ max, the switch ensures low resistance during operation. The dielectric strength of 2,000 Vrms 50 Hz and insulation resistance of 1,000 MΩ min. at 500 VDC provide exceptional electrical safety and stability. The switch operates as a double-pole (ON ON) configuration with silver contact materials for optimal conductivity.
Engineered for long-term use, the switch delivers a mechanical life of 150,000 cycles minimum. Its operating temperature range spans from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for extreme environments. The switch also features a one protected position design to ensure safe and consistent operation.
The patented intuitive ergonomics and laser-etched symbols enhance usability and reduce training time. Illuminated operation with a 24V green LED provides clear visual feedback, while the non-illuminated option ensures versatility in different lighting conditions.
