When it comes to selecting reliable components for your industrial or commercial applications, understanding the technical specifications of a product is crucial. The MPS3 series switch offers a robust solution with its blend of functionality and compliance with international standards.
Rated for a voltage of 110 VAC, this switch ensures dependable performance in various electrical setups. Its green illumination not only provides clear visibility but also adds an intuitive color-coded signal for operational status, enhancing safety and usability in busy environments.
Constructed from durable plastic, the switch is designed to withstand challenging conditions without compromising on longevity. It operates efficiently across a wide temperature range from -25°C to 70°C, making it suitable for diverse climates and demanding industrial settings.
The MPS3 series meets several 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 as well as UL 508 certification. This compliance underscores its quality and reliability in meeting global safety and performance benchmarks.
With a rated insulation voltage of up to 690 V and an impulse withstand voltage capability of up to 6 kV, it offers enhanced protection against electrical surges. The contact configuration features two normally closed (2NC) contacts which are ideal for ensuring circuits remain open when needed unless actuated otherwise.
The actuator type is a long handle designed for momentary function—meaning the switch returns to its original position after being pressed—providing precise control over operations that require temporary engagement. Additionally, the maintained positions A, C, B offer flexibility in how the switch can be used within various system designs.
Supporting a rated thermal current of up to 10 A ensures this device can handle significant operational demands without overheating or failure. Designed with practicality in mind, it requires a cutout size of just 22 mm which facilitates easy integration into existing panels or systems without needing extensive modifications.
In summary, this MPS3 series switch presents itself as an adaptable component suited for those seeking reliability combined with comprehensive standard compliance in their electrical engineering projects or automation systems.
