Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between self-reset and self-locking on the LA16 push button switch?
A: A self-reset (momentary) push button switch returns to its original OFF position as soon as you release it — ideal for momentary activation signals such as doorbells or start buttons. A self-locking (latching) switch stays in its ON position after being pressed and only returns to OFF when pressed again — perfect for toggle power controls or indicator applications.
Q: Can this 16mm push button switch be used with 220V mains voltage?
A: Yes. The LA16 series is rated for 12V, 24V, and 220V at up to 5A, making it compatible with both low-voltage DC circuits and standard 220V AC mains applications. Always ensure your wiring complies with local electrical safety regulations when working with mains voltage.
Q: What panel cutout size is required to install this switch?
A: This switch requires a standard 16mm diameter panel cutout, which is a common size found on most industrial and DIY control panels and enclosures.
Q: How many pin configurations are available for the LA16 push button switch?
A: The LA16 switch is available in 3-pin, 5-pin, 6-pin, and 8-pin configurations, allowing flexibility for a variety of NO/NC contact wiring requirements. Please select the pin count that matches your circuit design.
