Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What machines is the YH02A electromagnetic push button switch compatible with?
A: The YH02A is widely used with machine tools (lathes, mills, grinders), large bench power tools, and garden machinery. It is a direct drop-in replacement for KLD28A and KJD17A switches, so any machine originally fitted with those models will accept the YH02A without modification.
Q: Does the YH02A switch restart automatically after a power outage?
A: No — this is one of its most important safety features. After an unexpected power loss, the electromagnetic mechanism keeps the switch in the OFF position. An operator must deliberately press the green start button to restart the machine, preventing accidental or uncontrolled startups.
Q: What does the IP55 rating mean for this switch?
A: IP55 means the switch is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. This makes it suitable for dusty workshops, outdoor power equipment, and garden machinery where moisture and debris are common concerns.
Q: Can the YH02A be used with an overload protection switch?
A: Yes. Both the double-pole cut-off version and the single-pole brake version can be combined with a separate overload protection switch to achieve comprehensive under-voltage and overload protection for your equipment.
