The SRLM lock switch can handle currents between 4 to 80A at 250VAC over an operating life of >10,000 cycles. Suitable for harsh environments the switch has an operating temperature range of –25 to +85°C, is flame retardant to UL94 V0 and has silver cadmium oxide switch contacts. The lock housing is zinc alloy, bright chrome plated and parallel or tapered sided lock heads are available to assist with mounting panel design.
Connection is made via plated brass solder terminals or using optional PCB terminals and two switching options are available, 2-pole off/on (normally open) or 2-pole on/off (normally closed). With a 3mm contact gap the snap-on switch mechanism provides mains safety isolation.
