What this switch does

The JacobsParts LTCH-K3-RED is a momentary pushbutton disconnect rated for 250V AC/DC at 3A with a 12V red LED. It fits a 16mm panel cutout and carries an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance. The switch suits automotive, marine, and electronics projects where a momentary signal is required.

Included hardware and LED options

The package supplies a metal mounting nut and a rubber O-ring for optional extra sealing behind the faceplate. The LED draws 15mA at 12V DC and can be wired to stay illuminated continuously or to light only while the button is pressed. Screw terminals accept ring or fork connectors for secure wiring.

Build and mounting implications

The nickel-plated copper body measures 18mm across the faceplate and 36mm total depth behind the panel, with a 16mm thread depth. The IP67 enclosure withstands heavy splashes and temporary immersion, while the operating range spans -20C to 55C. The 16mm cutout and screw terminals allow straightforward panel installation in metal or plastic housings.

Questions about this item

Does the red LED on the LTCH-K3-RED need a resistor when wired to a 12V supply?

No, the LED is rated for 12V DC at 15mA so it can be connected directly to a 12V source without an external resistor.

What is the maximum continuous current the switch contacts can carry?

The switch contacts are rated for 3A at up to 250V AC/DC, which is the limit that will be reached first under sustained load.

How hot does the switch body get when the LED stays on all day?

The LED draws only 15mA at 12V, so self-heating is minimal; the switch is rated for operation up to 55°C ambient.
