Product Information

Full details

This Eaton RMQ-Titan pushbutton box is designed for industrial control applications requiring a reliable start command. Its key benefit is the robust IP67 protection and a simple 1 make/1 break contact configuration for straightforward integration. A potential caveat is its specific 'start' function, which may require additional components for more complex operations.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the primary function of this pushbutton box?

This pushbutton box is designed to provide a single "start" command, indicated by a green button with an 'I' symbol. It includes 1 normally open (NO) and 1 normally closed (NC) contact for integration into control circuits.

What does the IP67 rating mean?

An IP67 rating signifies that the pushbutton box is dust-tight and protected against immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Can this be used for functions other than 'start'?

While the button is specifically marked for 'start', the 1 NO and 1 NC contacts can be wired for other basic functions or interlocks within a control system. However, the visual indicator remains 'start'.

What size is the mounting cutout required?

The pushbutton box requires a standard 22.5mm diameter cutout in the control panel.

What is the maximum voltage this unit can handle?

The maximum AC voltage rating for this pushbutton box is 500V.

How many circuits can be controlled by this box?

The box provides one normally open (NO) and one normally closed (NC) contact, allowing for control of two separate circuit states or for use in logic arrangements.

Is the button or lens easily replaceable?

The M22 series is modular, allowing for replacement of components like the actuator or contact blocks. However, this specific 'complete' unit may require ordering specific replacement parts for the RMQ-Titan series.

Troubleshooting

Pushbutton not initiating the start command

Verify wiring connections to the NO and NC contacts. Ensure the voltage applied does not exceed the 500V AC maximum. Check if the button itself is physically stuck.

NC contact is not breaking the circuit when the button is pressed

Inspect the NC contact terminals for debris or damage. Confirm correct wiring, ensuring the NC contact is used as intended in the circuit.

Button feels stiff or doesn't return to its original position

Check for any obstructions around the button or within the enclosure. Ensure the mounting is not too tight, causing deformation. Clean the button actuator area.

Unit fails in a wet or dusty environment

Re-verify that the IP67 seal is intact and that the enclosure is properly closed and secured. Inspect for any cracks in the plastic or lens. Ensure mounting is flush to maintain sealing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High durability and resistance to environmental factors (IP67 rated).
  • Clear and intuitive "start" button design.
  • Simple contact configuration (1 NO/1 NC) for easy wiring.
  • Compact dimensions suitable for control panels.
  • Compatible with standard 22.5mm panel cutouts.

Cons

  • Limited to a single function (start command).
  • Only one NO and one NC contact available, may require relays for more complex circuits.
  • Plastic enclosure may not be suitable for extremely high impact environments.
  • Specific green color and 'I' symbol are fixed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the control panel has a standard 22.5mm diameter cutout.
  2. Mount the pushbutton box securely into the cutout using the provided mounting mechanism (typically a locking ring).
  3. Wire the 1 NO and 1 NC contacts according to your control circuit diagram. The maximum AC voltage rating is 500V.

Compatibility:

  • Designed to fit standard 22.5mm control panel openings.
  • Suitable for AC circuits up to 500V.
  • Compatible with industrial control systems requiring a simple start/stop (or start/interlock) function.

Care:

  • To clean, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the plastic or lens.
  • Periodically check the mounting and wiring connections to ensure they remain secure. Given its IP67 rating, extensive cleaning with liquids should not be necessary for the enclosure itself.
