Space Saver 22 mm Panel-Mount Push-Button Switches
The built-in contact block in these switches extends behind the panel half the depth of most other 22 mm switches, saving valuable space.
Push button is rated NEMA 13 for protection against dust, corrosion, and oil/coolant spraying. The clamp ring at the base of the button is rated NEMA 4 or 4X for protection against dirt and washdowns.
Add up to three contact blocks (sold separately) to control a maximum of eight circuits.

Wireless Self-Powered 22 mm Panel-Mount Push-Button Switches
Mount these switches in panel cutouts where changing a battery or routing wires might be difficult—they power themselves when you push the button. These switches wirelessly send a signal to a receiver (sold separately) up to 330 feet away. Since they operate equipment without requiring wires back to your control panel, they’re often used for retrofit or temporary installations. The switches come in distinct colors to help operators quickly identify them.
Switches include enough contact blocks to control the number of circuits listed. Additional contact blocks (sold separately) can be added to control more circuits or replace the included contact block. Connect up to 32 contact blocks to one receiver.

Contact Blocks for Manual Switches
Make or break an electrical circuit. These contact blocks mount to manual switches and transmit an electrical signal when the switch actuator is engaged. You can stack multiple blocks, so a single switch can control several circuits. This is helpful in setups that require multiple systems to turn on or off at the same time. For example, the switch on a conveyor line could turn off the conveyor and turn on a diverter and alarm.
