This manual is APEM's toggle switch product catalog, which details the product's specifications, model numbers, features, etc.
This catalog presents APEM's full range of toggle switches, including SMT‑washable tiny series, miniature series, and power toggle models. It lists key electrical parameters, mechanical dimensions, packaging options, and ordering formats to help engineers select the right switch for their application.
The guide covers multiple series such as TL, ZL, 21000N, 5000, 1000N, and the military‑style sealed switches, providing details on contact ratings, insulation resistance, dielectric strength, operating temperature, and electrical life, as well as optional features like locking levers and custom bushing configurations.
| Contact rating (resistive loads) | 0.4 VA at 20 V max |
|---|---|
| Insulation resistance | 1000 MΩ minimum at 500 VDC |
| Dielectric strength | 1000 V rms between terminals & frame |
| Operating temperature range | -40°C to +85°C |
| Electrical life (2‑position switches) | 60,000 cycles minimum |
The TL series switches are rated for 0.4 VA at a maximum of 20 V.
They have an insulation resistance of at least 1000 MΩ measured at 500 VDC.
The switches are rated for operation from –40 °C up to +85 °C.
A minimum of 60,000 operating cycles is guaranteed for 2‑position switches.
