Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The APEM Panel Switches PBARAACB000K0B is a high-performance autoswitch designed for demanding industrial environments. Featuring IP68 and IP69K sealing, ring illumination, and a 50 million cycle life expectancy, this stainless steel 316L switch operates reliably at -40°C with 24VDC/AC compatibility. Ideal for applications requiring robust, long-lasting switching solutions in harsh conditions.
The APEM Panel Switches PBARAACB000K0B is a rugged, high-reliability autoswitch engineered for extreme industrial environments. With a one-piece construction ensuring exceptional sealing to IP68 and IP69K standards, this switch delivers exceptional durability and resistance to vibration (10-500 Hz / 10 g per IEC 60068-2-6). Its stainless steel 316L body, blue LED ring illumination, and 50 million cycle life expectancy make it suitable for continuous operation in demanding applications. The switch operates at -40°C temperatures, supports 24VDC/AC with low power consumption (10-30 mA), and requires no external power for illumination, providing a maintenance-free solution for critical industrial control systems.
The APEM Panel Switches PBARAACB000K0B achieves IP68 and IP69K sealing through its one-piece construction, ensuring protection against dust, water, and high-pressure cleaning. This robust sealing allows the switch to operate in harsh environments, including submersion and high-temperature applications, while maintaining reliability under vibration (10-500 Hz / 10 g per IEC 60068-2-6). The switch operates effectively at temperatures as low as -40°C, making it suitable for extreme industrial conditions.
This switch supports standard 200 mA 24 VAC/DC for Function A and 100 mA 24 VAC/DC for Function B. It features low power consumption: 10 mA when unilluminated and 30 mA when illuminated. The switch resistance is ≤10Ω max when activated, ensuring efficient operation without significant voltage drop. No external power is required for the LED ring illumination, reducing system complexity.
Engineered for exceptional longevity, the switch delivers 50 million operational cycles, ideal for high-traffic industrial applications. The stainless steel 316L body provides corrosion resistance and a smooth, easy-to-clean surface. The one-piece construction minimizes failure points, contributing to the switch's extended service life and reduced maintenance needs.
The switch has a bushing diameter of 16mm, 19mm, 22mm, or 30mm, with a chamfered bushing height of 3mm. It operates with a force of 2-6N and is designed for panel mounting. The compact 3mm height ensures space efficiency in industrial control panels without compromising functionality.
