APEM IR Momentary Push Button

IR Series Momentary Push Button

The IR series of sealed push button switches is divided into 2 families: standard models and micro switch technology models.
The standard models include numerous terminal options: solder, flying lead, straight PC, quick-connect, but also screw.

The screw terminal version, unique on the market for this type of product, withstands up to 4 amps. Moreover, the behind-panel depth of the flying lead version is the shortest on the market.

MAIN FEATURES

  • Sealed to IP67
  • Illuminated or non-illuminated
  • Tactile feedback
  • Square or round actuator
  • Wide choice of actuator colours
  • Wide choice of illumination colours

This series can be easily customised.

  • Optional marking
  • Actuator marking is available on request for models with flat round actuator
  • Integrated resistor
  • On flying lead illuminated versions, the LED resistor can be integrated into the product by APEM upon request
