Pushbutton Switches Sealed Against Environment

A series of low-profile miniature pushbutton switches, the IA series is aimed at applications requiring protection from dust, sand, water and other contaminants. Applications include off-road vehicles, farm equipment, marine, machine tools, food processing and medical instrumentation. Normally open (NO) and normally closed/normally open (NC/NO) combined electrical functions are available. Power rating is 2A maximum at 24 Vdc resistive load. Switching life is rated 1-million cycles at full load. The switches are constructed with wire-lead terminals and have a bushing size of 16 mm. Seven plunger colors are available. A polyurethane membrane depresses when the switch is activated and provides an IP67 front-of-panel seal that is resistant to frost, sand and hydrocarbons. APEM COMPONENTS INC., Haverhill, MA.
