Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between a momentary push button switch and a latching switch?
A: A momentary push button switch only completes the circuit while the button is held down — it automatically resets (springs back) the moment you release it. A latching switch, by contrast, stays in its new position (ON or OFF) until pressed again. This 16mm momentary switch is ideal for applications where you need a brief trigger signal, such as activating a relay, contactor, or electromagnetic starter.
Q: Is this push button switch suitable for outdoor use?
A: Yes. This switch carries an IP65 waterproof rating (protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets) and an IK08 impact resistance rating, making it well suited for outdoor panel mounting, industrial enclosures, and other demanding environments.
Q: What panel cut-out size do I need to install this switch?
A: You need a 16mm (approximately 0.63 inch) round hole in your panel or enclosure. The bushing mount design allows quick, secure installation with the included hardware, and the screw terminal connections make wiring straightforward.
