Overview

The Schlegel Elektrokontakt BZLI5 is a precision-engineered momentary illuminated switch designed for industrial control panels, machinery, and automation systems. This high-reliability component features silver-nickel (AgNi) contacts for superior electrical conductivity and resistance to arcing, ensuring consistent performance over 1 million switching cycles at rated load. The BZLI5 operates at 300V rated insulation voltage with a thermal continuous current of 6A, making it suitable for both AC15 (240V, 1.5A) and DC13 (250V/125V/60V/24V, 0.2A/0.4A/1A/2A) applications. Its 3mm travel distance provides precise tactile feedback, while the Faston terminal connection (2.8 x 0.8mm) enables secure, vibration-resistant wiring with AWG 26-14 compatibility. The integrated T5.5K lamp holder supports up to 60V AC/DC illumination at 1.2W maximum power, allowing for clear visual status indication in control stations. The BZLI5's modular design and positive opening contacts make it ideal for emergency stop systems, machine controls, and operator interface applications where reliability and durability are critical. With a compact footprint and robust construction, it integrates seamlessly into existing control systems while meeting stringent industrial requirements. Key specifications include a mechanical and electrical life of 1 million operations at rated load, minimum switching current of 1mA at 5V, and prell time under 10ms. Operating temperature ranges from -30°C to 70°C (without illumination), -30°C to 55°C (with incandescent lamps), and -30°C to 65°C (with LED lamps). Storage temperature spans -50°C to 85°C.
