This Eaton RMQ-Titan selector switch is designed for industrial control panel applications requiring a momentary two-position selection. It offers a robust IP66/NEMA 4X rated front for protection against dust and water, making it ideal for harsh environments. A key benefit is its reliable two-position momentary action with two Normally Open (NO) contacts. One caveat to consider is its standard panel mounting, which may require specific cut-out dimensions.

A momentary switch only maintains its contact when actively pressed or toggled. When you release it, it returns to its default, unactuated state. This is like a doorbell button.
Normally Open (NO) contacts are open (not conducting electricity) when the switch is in its unactuated state. When the switch is actuated, these contacts close, allowing electricity to flow through them. Having two NO contacts means you can control two separate circuits simultaneously.
Yes, with an IP66 rating and NEMA 4X compliance, it is protected against dust and powerful water jets, making it suitable for many outdoor industrial applications. However, direct, prolonged exposure to harsh weather may still require additional enclosure protection.
This switch features a black toggle actuator made from PVC material.
The front ring of the switch is made of plastic with a chrome finish.
The switch is designed for standard panel mounting. You will need to cut a specific size hole in your control panel and secure the switch using the provided mounting hardware.
No, this is a momentary switch. It is not designed to stay in the actuated position. For latching functions, you would need a maintained selector switch.
Verify electrical connections to the NO terminals are secure and correctly wired. Ensure the control voltage is applied. Check that the actuator is fully depressing and returning.
Inspect the actuator and surrounding area for debris or obstructions. Clean the area gently. If damage is suspected, replace the switch.
Replace the front ring or the entire switch assembly if the IP66/NEMA 4X rating is critical for the application environment.
Setup: The switch is designed for standard panel mounting. Ensure the panel has the correct cut-out size as specified by Eaton for the RMQ-Titan series. Mount the switch by inserting it into the panel cut-out and securing it with the provided mounting hardware. Connect the electrical wires to the rear terminals of the two NO contacts according to your circuit diagram.
Compatibility: This switch is compatible with standard industrial control panels and wiring practices. It integrates with other components designed for 22mm mounting systems. Ensure your control voltage and current requirements are within the switch's specifications.
Care: To maintain optimal performance, regularly clean the front of the switch with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which could damage the PVC actuator or plastic front ring. Ensure that no debris accumulates around the actuator, as this could impede its momentary function. Check electrical connections periodically for tightness and signs of corrosion.
