Construction and technical parameters

The BMW5.01/11 switch is characterized by a solid construction and high quality workmanship. Made of plastic, it has an IP20 degree of protection, which means protection against touching with a finger and against the ingress of solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. The installation depth is 24 mm, which should be taken into account when designing the electrical installation. The connection arrangement is a 2x1-pole switch, and the connection type is plug-in self-clamping – guaranteeing a secure and durable connection of the wires. The surface protection is in a raw state – requires the use of a frame for complete visual finishing.
