AS22CH Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended torque for mounting the AS22CH switch?
  The recommended torque for mounting the AS22CH switch is 0.5 N·m to 1.5 N·m (0.36 lbf·in to 1.06 lbf·in).
• Is the AS22CH switch suitable for use in high-temperature environments?
  The AS22CH switch is rated for operation up to 85°C (185°F), but it's not recommended for use in high-temperature environments above 85°C. For high-temperature applications, consider using a switch with a higher temperature rating.
• Can the AS22CH switch be used in humid or wet environments?
  The AS22CH switch has a rating of IP40, which means it's protected against solid objects larger than 1 mm, but it's not sealed against moisture. It's not recommended for use in humid or wet environments without additional protection or sealing.
• What is the expected lifespan of the AS22CH switch?
  The expected lifespan of the AS22CH switch is 10,000 to 50,000 cycles, depending on the operating conditions and usage. Proper maintenance and handling can help extend the lifespan.
• Is the AS22CH switch compatible with PCB mounting?
  Yes, the AS22CH switch is compatible with PCB mounting. It has a through-hole design and can be mounted directly to a printed circuit board (PCB) using the provided pins.
