Pushbuttons and E-stops feature rugged design and simple installation

The LUMOTAST 16 from RAFI from Texim Europe is a compact pushbutton/switch series featuring a rugged one-piece design simplifying and reducing installation time. The reliability and flexibility of this space-saving, single pushbutton series, consists of pushbutton, illuminated pushbutton and emergency stop. The devices fit in a 16.2mm mounting hole, providing a mounting depth of 18.2mm, is perfectly suited for critical space designs that need both customisable switch input, and emergency shutdown capabilities. The LUMOTAST 16 pushbutton switches incorporate the MICON 5 tactile switch ensuring crisp feedback with a distinct key click. Special, first-class switching behaviour is achieved, combined with full area illumination. The C-LAB actuators are easily removable to enable customisation. This means various front ring colours can be combined with the bezels according to the user’s wishes or design preferences. It also means that customised label symbols or texts can be implemented. The contacts are gold plated and rated to 35V. The LUMOTAST 16 E-Stop variant features an attractive design and is sealed to IP67 front panel protection and is available with gold or silver contacts in a mixture of contact arrangements. The twist-to-release E-Stop is available with NO or NC contact, illuminated release arrows, or an Active/Inactive fully illuminated 30mm mushroom. To meet the demands for radio connection to a machine, RAFI developed a special “active/inactive” emergency stop variant.
