When selecting a pushbutton for industrial or commercial applications, it's essential to focus on the technical specifications that ensure reliability and compatibility with your systems. This particular pushbutton, part of the HW series, offers robust features designed to meet demanding operational environments.
Rated for a voltage of 12 VAC/DC, this illuminated pushbutton is suitable for low-voltage applications while maintaining high visibility thanks to its yellow LED lamp. The illumination circuit operates at full voltage, ensuring consistent brightness throughout its use.
One of the standout features is its operational temperature range from -25 to 60 degrees Celsius, making it versatile enough for various climates and conditions. The screw terminal type simplifies installation and maintenance processes by providing secure connections.
The degree of protection is noteworthy: IP65 at the front ensures resistance against dust ingress and water jets from any direction, while IP20 at the terminal provides basic protection against finger contact. This makes it ideal for environments where exposure to harsh elements might be a concern.
Certified with UL listing, CE marking, ULKA approval, and CSA certification, this pushbutton meets multiple international standards ensuring compliance with safety regulations across different regions.
With a mechanical life rated at 5 million operations and an insulation resistance of 100 MOhm, durability is assured even in high-frequency usage scenarios. The actuator type is flush with a round bezel shape made from plastic material in black color—an aesthetic choice that blends seamlessly into most panel designs while offering easy actuation.
The contact configuration includes one normally closed (1NC) contact made from silver material known for excellent conductivity and longevity under electrical load stresses. It supports a rated thermal current of up to 10 A which suits moderate power requirements effectively.
For those concerned about space constraints during installation or retrofitting projects—the cutout size matches industry-standard dimensions at 22 mm diameter—ensuring compatibility with existing setups without requiring additional modifications or adaptors.
In summary, this pushbutton combines functionality with resilience through thoughtful design choices tailored towards meeting both general-purpose needs as well as specific application demands within industrial settings efficiently.
