MARQUARDT Illuminated Rocker Switch, Off-On, DPST, Red, 250V AC, 20A

The MARQUARDT 1930 Series illuminated rocker switch provides a robust and reliable control solution for industrial and commercial applications. This double-pole, single-throw (DPST) switch is designed for panel mounting and features a distinctive red actuator with an illuminated 'ON' indicator, offering clear visual confirmation of the circuit status.

Constructed with a durable black PA (polyamide) housing, the switch is built to withstand demanding environments. It achieves an IP65 protection rating, ensuring it is completely protected against dust ingress and capable of withstanding low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes it suitable for use in areas where exposure to contaminants or occasional splashing is a concern.

The switch's electrical contacts are silver-plated for optimal conductivity and longevity, while the external/bearing connections are also silver-plated to enhance performance. It is rated for a maximum of 20A at 250V AC, providing a high-current switching capability. The terminals are designed as 6.3mm quick-connect tabs, allowing for fast and tool-free wiring connections, which simplifies installation and maintenance.

Engineered for consistent operation, the switch requires a plug force of ≤80N for the terminals and an operating force between 3 to 8N for the rocker itself, ensuring a positive tactile feel. With a contact distance of ≥3mm, it offers safe isolation. Its compact dimensions make it easy to integrate into a variety of control panels and enclosures.

This illuminated rocker switch is an ideal choice for machinery, industrial control systems, and any application where a durable, high-visibility, and reliable switching component is required. The combination of its illuminated feature, high electrical rating, and environmental protection offers a professional-grade component for critical circuits.
