Additional Details

The C25P40F likely indicates a specific model within the C25 series. Key specifications include the switch's contact rating (voltage and current), operating temperature range, mechanical life, and electrical life. The illumination voltage and current will also be crucial if the switch is illuminated. The exact dimensions, mounting hole size, and bezel style will be important for proper panel integration. The switch may also have specific certifications (e.g., UL, CSA). Always consult the manufacturer's datasheet for complete specifications and application guidelines. The C25 series typically offers a range of lens styles (e.g., round, square), and the actuator may have different markings or engravings for specific functions.
