<p>For professionals in the electrical engineering and automation sectors, selecting the right components is crucial for ensuring system reliability and efficiency. The MPS3 series switch offers a robust solution tailored to meet those exacting demands with precision.</p><p>Designed for industrial and commercial applications, this illuminated red switch operates at a rated voltage of 220 VDC. Its resilient plastic construction ensures durability even in challenging environments. The operational temperature range from -25 to 70&#176;C makes it versatile enough to handle various climatic conditions without compromising performance.</p><p>The switch adheres to rigorous standards and approvals including CSA C22.2 No. 14, DIN 40050-9, EN 50013, IEC/EN 60073, IEC/EN 60529, IEC/EN 60947-1, IEC/EN 60947-5-1, IEC/EN 60947-5-5, and UL 508. These certifications underscore its compliance with international safety and quality benchmarks.</p><p>A key feature of this product is its contact configuration of one normally open (NO) and one normally closed (NC) contact which provides flexibility in circuit design. The maintained function allows the actuator to stay in position until manually reset or changed—a practical choice for applications requiring stable operation states.</p><p>With a rated insulation voltage of up to 690 V and an impressive impulse withstand voltage of up to 6 kV, the switch is engineered for high-voltage environments while maintaining electrical integrity. It supports a rated thermal current of up to 10 A which caters well to medium-duty applications.</p><p>The short handle actuator type enhances user interaction by providing clear tactile feedback during operation—an essential feature when quick manual intervention is necessary. This model fits into a standard cutout size of 22 mm making it compatible with existing panel designs without any need for modifications.</p><p>Maintained positions A, B, and C offer additional configurational flexibility allowing users to customize setup according to specific operational requirements or preferences.</p><p>In summary, if you seek reliability combined with adherence to international standards for your switching needs within industrial or commercial settings then this offering from the MPS3 series should be considered seriously as part of your equipment lineup.</p>
