When selecting a pushbutton for your industrial or commercial application, it's crucial to focus on technical specifications that meet your operational needs. This red illuminated pushbutton is designed to offer reliability and efficiency in various environments, making it a solid choice for professionals seeking dependable performance.
Operating at a rated voltage of 12 VDC, this pushbutton ensures low-voltage operation suitable for many applications. Its illumination feature enhances visibility, especially useful in dimly lit or complex control panels where quick identification is essential.
The device's robust construction includes plastic material, ensuring durability while maintaining cost-effectiveness. The operational temperature range from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius allows it to perform reliably under diverse environmental conditions without compromising functionality.
This pushbutton boasts an impressive degree of protection with IP20 and IP65 ratings. The IP20 rating provides basic protection against finger-sized objects and incidental contact, whereas the IP65 rating offers complete protection against dust ingress and water jets from any direction. Such versatility makes it adaptable for both indoor installations and harsher outdoor settings where exposure to elements is a concern.
In terms of standards and approvals, this product complies with several international standards such as CSA C22.2 No. 14, EN 50013, IEC/EN 60073 among others; these certifications assure users of its safety and compatibility within global applications. Additionally, the UL 508 certification further confirms its suitability within electrical control devices used in North America.
The rated insulation voltage stands at an impressive 690 V which adds an extra layer of safety by preventing unintended current flow through the button’s housing during operation. Furthermore, with a rated impulse withstand voltage of 6 kV, it offers excellent resistance against transient overvoltage spikes that might occur due to switching operations or nearby lightning strikes.
Featuring a contact configuration of 2NO (two normally open contacts), this pushbutton can effectively integrate into systems requiring reliable circuit closure upon activation. It supports up to a rated thermal current of 10 A which accommodates most standard load requirements efficiently.
Finally, the pull release method provides straightforward usability when resetting after activation—ideal for emergency stop functions where simplicity is key during critical situations.
