When selecting a reliable and functional selector switch for your industrial or commercial application, understanding the technical specifics is crucial. The MPS2 series selector switch offers a blend of efficiency and durability, making it an ideal choice for various settings.
This illuminated green selector switch operates at a rated voltage of 12 VDC, ensuring that it meets low-voltage requirements while providing clear visibility in operation. Made from robust plastic, the device is designed to withstand operational temperatures ranging from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius. This broad temperature range ensures that the switch performs reliably in diverse environmental conditions.
The MPS2 series adheres to multiple 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 assure compliance with international safety and performance standards—essential for maintaining high operational integrity in critical applications.
With a rated insulation voltage of up to 690 V and an impressive rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, this selector switch can handle significant electrical stress without compromising its functionality or safety. The contact configuration features two normally open (2NO) contacts which offer straightforward integration into existing systems requiring simple on/off control functions.
The actuator type is a short handle design with maintained functionality—meaning once set to a position it stays until manually changed—ideal for stable operations where consistent performance is necessary. The maintained positions B and C provide flexibility in application setups depending on specific operational needs.
Additionally, the switch supports a rated thermal current of up to 10 A which allows it to accommodate substantial current loads typical in many industrial environments without overheating or failure risks.
Designed for easy installation with a standard cutout size of 22 mm, this selector switch fits seamlessly into most panel designs without requiring extensive modifications—a feature appreciated by engineers looking for hassle-free upgrades or replacements within existing systems.
Overall, the MPS2 series selector switch combines essential features such as illumination for visibility under various lighting conditions with robust construction suitable for demanding environments. Its adherence to stringent international standards further enhances its reliability as part of any professional setup requiring dependable switching solutions tailored precisely around user needs.
