Compact industrial controls may be engraved and backlit

27 August 2003 Switches, Relays & Keypads

APEM has expanded its range of industrial controls with two new series. The A1 series consists of flush mounting pushbuttons and indicators with round aluminium bezel. Engraved screens, backlit or not, are offered as standard and provide stylish front panel appearance. A large variety of lamps and LEDs are available.

The A03 series consists of large diameter round pushbuttons and indicators, designed for 22 or 30 mm diameter panel cutout, but featuring particularly compact behind-panel dimensions. Standard and flush mounting versions are offered, with many screen engraving, legends and/or backlighting options.

Like many of the APEM industrial control series, these models are intended for applications in automated stations, safety equipment, transport vehicles (buses, trains, cars) etc.

Main specifications: IP65; UL, VDE, BEAB approvals; 10 mA, 5 V a.c. min, 6 A 250 V a.c. max; 50 000 cycles life; 2,8 mm solder lug/quick-connect terminals; 1 to 4 poles.
