ASE22GS04 is a DPDT (double-pole double-throw) slide switch from the ASE/F Series featuring an extended actuator and gold contacts with surface mount "S" type terminal configuration. The switch operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +80°C and features a copper alloy movable contact with insert molded terminal seal. It offers a contact rating of 0.4 VA at 20 VDC or peak AC (shorting type) for gold contacts, with an initial contact resistance of 0.40 milliohms maximum and insulation resistance of 1,000 megohms at 500 VDC minimum. The switch provides a life expectancy of 10,000 cycles with an actuation force of 850±150 grams and travel of 0.100±0.010 inches (2.54±0.25 mm). This switch is ideal for applications requiring reliable telecom-grade switching with bifurcated double wipe contacts, and its high temperature anti-static plastic construction withstands surface mount, vapor phase reflow, or wave soldering conditions.
