The MPS3 series switch is a reliable choice for professionals in the industrial and commercial sectors, offering a blend of durability and functionality. Designed to operate at a rated voltage of 12 VDC, this switch features green illumination, making it visually distinct and easy to identify in various settings.
Constructed with robust plastic material, the switch withstands operational temperatures ranging from -25 to 70°C, ensuring dependable performance across diverse environmental conditions. Its compliance with multiple standards—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—attests to its safety and quality credentials.
The MPS3 series includes a short handle actuator type with a maintained function. This feature allows the switch to remain in its selected position until manually changed by the user. The contact configuration of this model is designed as one normally open (NO) and one normally closed (NC), providing versatility for various circuit designs.
Rated insulation voltage stands at an impressive 690 V while the rated impulse withstand voltage reaches up to 6 kV. These specifications highlight the switch's capability to endure high electrical stress without compromising safety or performance.
With a rated thermal current of up to 10 A and a cutout size of precisely 22 mm, installation is straightforward yet secure within standard panel openings. The maintained positions A, B, and C allow for flexible control options tailored to specific application needs.
In summary, whether you're upgrading existing systems or designing new ones from scratch in Australia’s demanding environments—the MPS3 series provides reliability backed by rigorous international standards compliance—a sound investment for those who prioritize both efficiency and safety in their operations.
