For professionals in the electrical engineering and automation sectors, choosing the right components is crucial to ensure system reliability and efficiency. The MMS2 series switch offers a blend of robust performance and compliance with international standards, making it a reliable choice for industrial and commercial applications.
Operating at a rated voltage of 12 VAC/VDC, this switch caters to both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) systems. Its blue illumination not only enhances visibility but also adds an aesthetic touch to control panels. Crafted from durable metal, the switch is designed to withstand challenging environments with an operational temperature range from -30 to 70 degrees Celsius.
The product boasts an IP66 degree of protection, ensuring resistance against dust ingress and powerful water jets. This makes it suitable for harsh conditions where moisture or particulate matter might be present. Compliance with standards such as CSA C22.2 No. 14, IEC/EN 60073, IEC/EN 60529, IEC/EN 60947-5-1, IEC/EN 60947-5-5, and UL 508 further underscores its reliability across various regulatory landscapes.
Installation is straightforward thanks to its screw-type connection method. With a cutout size of 22 mm, it fits seamlessly into standard panel configurations without requiring custom modifications. The maintained function ensures that once activated by the long handle actuator type, it remains in position A or C until manually reset—ideal for applications needing consistent operation over time.
The contact configuration is single normally open (1NO), providing simplicity in circuit design while maintaining functionality. Rated insulation voltage stands at an impressive 690 V with a rated impulse withstand voltage of up to 4 kV—ensuring safety during transient overvoltage events common in industrial settings.
With a rated thermal current capability of up to 10 A, this component can handle significant power loads without overheating—critical for maintaining operational integrity under demanding conditions.
Lastly, the light blocks are powered by their own supply source which simplifies integration into existing systems without additional wiring complexities often associated with external lighting circuits.
In summary, if you're looking for a dependable switching solution that combines durability with compliance across multiple standards—the MMS2 series could very well meet your technical requirements efficiently.
