APEM AV0630C940 16mm Pushbutton Security Switch, Flat

The APEM AV0630C940 is a professional-grade, momentary snap-action security switch designed for reliable operation in demanding applications. This single-pole, single-throw (SPST) switch features a normally open (NO) function and is equipped with a screw terminal for secure electrical connections. Its defining characteristic is a flat actuator, which provides a low-profile and tamper-resistant interface.

Constructed for longevity, the switch boasts a silver-plated brass contact for excellent conductivity and a stainless steel actuator and bushing for superior strength and corrosion resistance. The short case is made from durable PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), contributing to the switch's robust and fire-resistant properties.

A key security feature is its anti-jamming construction. This design reduces actuator travel to physically prevent the insertion of foreign objects, enhancing protection against tampering. Furthermore, the internal contact and mechanism are shielded against crushing, ensuring reliable performance even in harsh environments. With an IP54 rating, it is protected against dust ingress and water splashes, making it suitable for a variety of settings.

The switch is designed to be irremovable once installed, adding an extra layer of security. Its attractive yet utilitarian design, combined with a 16mm bushing diameter, makes it a robust and durable choice for panel mounting where both function and resilience are paramount.

Key Features:

• Momentary Action: Operates only while pressure is applied to the actuator.
• Anti-Jamming Design: Reduced travel prevents tampering with foreign objects.
• Robust Construction: Features stainless steel actuator/bushing and a PBT case.
• Secure Connection: Screw terminals ensure a reliable, vibration-resistant electrical joint.
• Environmental Protection: Rated IP54 for dust and water splash resistance.
