The MPS3 series switch is a robust, reliable component designed for industrial and commercial applications where durability and compliance with international standards are paramount. Operating at a rated voltage of 24 VAC/VDC, this illuminated switch provides clear visual indication in its bright yellow color, ensuring visibility even in low-light conditions. Constructed from durable plastic, it withstands operational temperatures ranging from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for various environments.
Meeting rigorous standards and approvals such as 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 ensures that this product adheres to essential safety and performance requirements globally. The MPS3 switch features a contact configuration of one normally open (NO) and one normally closed (NC), providing flexibility in circuit design.
With a rated insulation voltage of up to 690 V and an impressive rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, the switch offers excellent protection against electrical surges. This makes it particularly suitable for use in circuits exposed to transient overvoltage conditions. The actuator type is a short handle with maintained function across positions A, B, and C—ideal for applications requiring consistent engagement without constant manual pressure.
Designed with practicality in mind, the cutout size measures at an industry-standard of 22 mm for easy integration into existing systems or panels. Additionally, the rated thermal current stands at a solid 10 A—sufficient for handling moderate power loads commonly found in industrial settings.
In summary, the MPS3 series switch combines reliability with versatility while maintaining compliance with international standards—a fitting choice for professionals seeking dependable performance under varied environmental conditions without compromising on safety or efficiency.
