Overview
The Schlegel Elektrokontakt MTI is a precision-engineered momentary switch designed for industrial control applications requiring reliable, low-maintenance switching. This switch features a 6 mm travel distance with a single normally open (NO) contact configuration, ensuring precise actuation in control panels, machinery, and automation systems. The AgNi contact material delivers excellent conductivity and durability, rated for 1 million switching cycles at full load, making it suitable for high-cycle applications. The screw connection supports wire cross-sections up to 2.5 mm², providing secure termination and high contact force even under strong vibrations. The MTI switch is rated for a thermal continuous current of 16 A and operates at voltages up to 480 V AC/DC, with AC15 ratings of 3 A at 240 V and 1.5 A at 480 V, and DC13 ratings of 2 A at 24 V and 0.2 A at 250 V. Its Class II protective insulation (rated insulation voltage Ui 600V) enhances safety in industrial environments. Compatible with modular contact blocks and push-in connection systems, the MTI switch integrates seamlessly into existing control systems. Manufactured in Germany by Schlegel Elektrokontakt, a leader in industrial switching solutions, the MTI switch is built to meet EN 60947-5-1 and EN 61058-1 standards, ensuring compliance with stringent industrial requirements. Ideal for applications in automation, machinery control, and safety systems where reliable momentary switching is critical.
