Idec Illuminated Miniature Push Button Switch, Momentary, Panel Mount, 8 mm Cutout, SPDT, IP40, 125 V ac AL8Q-M10

Idec AL8Q-M10 Illuminated Miniature Push Button Switch is a high-quality momentary switch designed for panel mounting requiring an 8 mm cutout. It features SPDT contact configuration and is part of the AL series, tailored for precise industrial and automation applications.

This miniature push button switch includes an illuminated black actuator of cylinder style for easy and safe manual operation. Designed for use with LEDs supplied separately, it requires current limiting with an external resistor as specified to maintain LED performance. The switch’s solder terminal types ensure secure electrical connections in various industrial setups.

The IP40 protection rating guards against entry of solid particles larger than 1 mm, making it ideal for control panels and electrical enclosures exposed to dust but not water. Its contact voltage rating of 125 V ac and current rating of 100mA suit low-power switching demands with a maximum operating temperature of 120°C, supporting reliable functionality in elevated temperature environments.

Conformance with UL and CSA standards guarantees safety and regulatory compliance for industrial, commercial, and laboratory uses. The illuminated feature provides clear visual status indication, enhancing user interface and safety. The product is manufactured in Japan, reflecting stringent quality control and reliability standards.

The unique design includes two-part lenses comprising a diffuser and coloured transparent front cover with possible markings to indicate switch function. Suitable lenses and LEDs must be ordered separately as they are not included with the indicator bezel or push button switch itself.

This switch is ideal for applications in industrial automation, control panels, machine tools, HVAC controls, electrical equipment, and other environments requiring sub-miniature illuminated push button switches for status indication and control.

The switch features black actuator color with illumination capability for clear status indication. It is designed with a cylinder-style actuator and solder terminal types for secure connections. IP40 rating ensures protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm, suitable for industrial environments.

Operates safely up to 125 V ac contact voltage and supports a contact current of 100mA. The maximum operating temperature is 120°C for reliable performance in demanding applications. The switch meets UL and CSA standards ensuring compliance and safety.

Comes from the AL series with a panel mount configuration optimized for sub-miniature applications. Note: When not illuminated, the green LED appears yellow due to LED design. Manufactured in Japan with high-quality standards.
