APEM, manufacturer of high quality switches and joysticks, offers a fully sealed, snap-acting pushbutton switch with strong tactile feedback, designed for off-road vehicles and other noisy environments where a confirming “click” is imperative.

APEM’s IM series, snap-acting pushbutton switches are sealed to IP67 and are rated for use in temperatures from -40°C to +85°C. This push button switch is suitable for low level switching up to 1 million cycles and can also be used for higher power applications up to 3A 28VDC. The IM is UL approved at 2A 125VAC/250VAC.

The IM is offered with a round or flat actuator in two height levels, in 9 actuator colors and in a matte or shiny finish. The IM series is also available in a reduced bezel size for fitting into tight spaces. This product is offered with gold plated silver contacts and in straight PC or quick-connect terminals.
