When it comes to selecting reliable and efficient components for industrial and commercial applications, understanding the technical specifications is crucial. The MPS2 series momentary switch offers a blend of durability, compliance, and functionality that makes it a suitable choice for various environments.
This switch operates on a rated voltage of 24 VAC/VDC, making it versatile enough to be integrated into systems requiring either alternating or direct current. Its illumination feature with clear plastic material ensures visibility in diverse lighting conditions while maintaining robustness.
Designed to withstand harsh environments, the switch functions efficiently across an operational temperature range from -25°C to 70°C. This broad range indicates its capability to perform in both cold storage facilities and heated industrial settings without compromising on reliability.
The product adheres to stringent standards such as CSA C22.2 No. 14, DIN 40050-9, EN 50013 among others including UL 508 certification which assures users of its safety and performance quality across international markets.
The MPS2 series boasts a contact configuration of 1NO (normally open), providing straightforward integration into existing circuits where opening contacts are required by default until actuated. With a rated insulation voltage of up to 690 V and an impressive rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, this switch is engineered for high-performance scenarios where electrical surges might occur.
Its actuator type features a long handle offering ergonomic ease during operation while ensuring precise control over the momentary function—ideal for applications demanding quick engagement without latching mechanisms. Additionally, the maintained positions C and B provide flexibility in application design allowing configurations tailored to specific needs.
With a cutout size of 22 mm, installation is simplified fitting standard panel sizes commonly found in industrial setups. The rated thermal current capacity stands at an ample 10 A supporting moderate power loads typical in automation processes or machinery controls without overheating concerns.
In summary, the MPS2 series momentary switch combines practical design with rigorous compliance standards catering effectively to technical requirements within Australian industries seeking reliable switching solutions adaptable across varied operating conditions.
