The switches have contact ratings of 2A at 250 Vac or 4 A at 125 Vac, with a minimum life of 10,000 cycles. Initial contact resistance is 10 milliohms max at 1 Amp 2 Vdc, and dielectric strength is 1,500 V rms between terminals or 2,000 V rms between terminals and front panel. Insulation resistance is set at 1,000 megaohms min. at 500 Vdc. These models operate in a -20ûC to 55ûC environment.
