The pushbutton you're considering is a robust solution designed for demanding environments such as mining, construction, and heavy industry applications. With a rated voltage of 230 VAC/DC, this pushbutton delivers reliable performance across various industrial settings.
One of the standout features is its dual illumination capability. The built-in LED provides clear visibility with a lamp colour that remains consistent in different lighting conditions. The button itself is split into two sections: green on the upper portion for starting operations and red on the lower section for stopping, ensuring intuitive operation.
This device boasts an IP66 degree of protection at the front, offering excellent resistance to dust and powerful water jets—ideal for harsh environments. Meanwhile, the terminal side has an IP20 rating to ensure safety during installation and maintenance. It complies with numerous international standards including EN IEC 60947 series, UL 508, and CSA C22.2 No. 14, underscoring its reliability and safety credentials.
The pushbutton operates efficiently within an ambient temperature range from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for extreme weather conditions often encountered in industrial settings. Its rated insulation voltage stands at a sturdy 690 V while offering a rated impulse withstand voltage of up to 6 kV—ensuring resilience against transient overvoltages.
Featuring a contact configuration of 1NO+1NC (one normally open and one normally closed contact), it supports flexible control circuit designs. The actuator type is flush/flush which contributes to its sleek profile without compromising functionality or ease of use.
Designed with practicality in mind, it includes essential components such as an operator unit, contact block holder, contact block itself, and LED block—all housed within a durable plastic bezel material that fits neatly into standard cutout sizes of 22 mm diameter.
With momentary function capability combined with clear legends indicating "Start" on top and "Stop" below—the user interface becomes straightforward yet effective even under pressure-filled situations common in heavy industries where quick decision-making can be crucial.
Overall this pushbutton offers not just compliance but also confidence through its thoughtful design tailored specifically towards robustness needed by professionals working amidst challenging operational demands found across Australia's diverse technical landscape.
