OEX ACX3690BL 12V 5A IP65 Illuminated Latching Push Button Switch Red LED Chrome Housing NO and NC Terminals 19mm Mount
The OEX ACX3690BL is a 12V, 5A illuminated latching push button switch in an SPST On/Off configuration, with a red LED indicator and IP65 weatherproof rating. The push-on/push-off latching action toggles the circuit between On and Off states with each press, staying in the selected position until pressed again. Chrome plated housing for a premium appearance suited to custom dash panels, marine consoles and accessory installations where aesthetics matter alongside function. Three blade terminals common, normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) provide wiring flexibility for both standard and normally closed circuit configurations. 19mm mounting hole, 12mm mount length. Covered by a one year warranty.
Product overview
The ACX3690BL is a latching switch the circuit stays active after the button is released and remains in the selected state until pressed again. This is the correct choice for circuits that need to stay on without holding the button, as opposed to a momentary switch which only activates while held.
The three-terminal configuration provides wiring flexibility. The normally open (NO) terminal creates a circuit that is open at rest and closes when the switch is activated the standard configuration for accessory switching. The normally closed (NC) terminal creates a circuit that is closed at rest and opens when the switch is activated used in alarm, interlock and control circuit applications. This flexibility, combined with the IP65 weatherproofing and chrome housing, makes the ACX3690BL suited to both functional control circuit roles and aesthetically conscious panel builds. At 5A it handles low-current loads and relay trigger inputs directly. For loads exceeding 5A, the switch should trigger a relay.

Red LED illuminated: Glows when the switch is in the On position for clear status indication.
IP65 rated: Fully sealed against dust and protected against water jets from any direction. Suited to external mounting and exposed panel locations.
Chrome plated housing: Premium finish for custom panels and marine consoles.
3x blade terminals common, NO and NC: Wire between common and NO for a standard normally open circuit. Wire between common and NC for a normally closed circuit. Suited to both accessory switching and relay trigger inputs.
19mm mounting hole: Standard diameter for illuminated push button switches.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a momentary or latching switch? The ACX3690BL is a latching (push On/push Off) switch pressing it toggles the circuit between On and Off states and the switch holds its position until pressed again. It is not a momentary switch; the circuit remains active after the button is released.
What are the three terminals for? The three blade terminals are common, normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC). Wire between common and NO for a circuit that is open at rest and closes when the switch is activated standard accessory switching. Wire between common and NC for a circuit that is closed at rest and opens when the switch is activated used in alarm, interlock and control applications where a closed circuit is the normal state.
What does IP65 mean for this switch? IP65 means the switch is fully protected against dust ingress (6) and against water jets from any direction (5). This makes it suitable for panel locations exposed to rain, splash and wash-down including external vehicle panels, marine consoles and outdoor equipment enclosures.
What mounting hole does this switch require? The ACX3690BL requires a 19mm round mounting hole with sufficient depth for the 12mm mount length. Confirm both the hole diameter and panel thickness before installation.
What is the maximum load this switch can handle directly? This switch is rated at 5A at 12V. For loads exceeding 5A, use the switch to trigger a relay rather than wiring the load directly through the switch contacts. The NO and NC terminal options make it well suited as a relay trigger input.
