3. Product Structure and Core Advantages

  1. universal interchangeability
    22mm standard opening, completely common installation dimensions with LAY7, LA38, Y090 series, easy to replace.
  2. Safe flame retardant material
    The shell is made of flame-retardant engineering plastic, which is resistant to high temperatures, aging, and durable in industrial environments.
  3. Silver alloy contacts
    Excellent electrical conductivity, reduced arcing, long service life, stable contact and no sparking.
  4. Anti-loosening structure
    The terminal blocks are prevented from falling off, the screws are prevented from being lost, and the installation is firm.
  5. Modular design
    The head and contact base are detachable, making maintenance and assembly easy.

4.Working principle

  1. Ordinary button (self-reset/self-locking)
    Normal state: the contacts remain in the initial state (NO is open, NC is closed)
    Operation: Press the button → contact switching (NO closed, NC open)
    Self-reset: Automatically rebound when letting go, contact recovery
    Self-locking: Press to lock, the contacts remain in the switching state
  2. Emergency stop button (core safety principle)
    Mechanical structure: Press the mushroom head → lock without rebound; rotate clockwise → unlock and rebound
    Electrical logic: Normally closed (NC) contacts used by default
    ✅Normal operation: NC closed, circuit conductive
    ❌ Press the emergency stop: NC is disconnected and the control loop is cut off → the equipment stops immediately
    ✅ Rotation reset: NC re-closes and the circuit is restored

5.Standard wiring instructions

  1. Terminal identification: NO (normally open), NC (normally closed), COM (common terminal)
  2. Conventional start and stop: COM + NO for start circuit; COM + NC for stop/emergency stop circuit
  3. Model with light: separate lamp pin is connected to the corresponding power supply (DC24V/AC220V), distinguish the positive and negative poles

6.Installation dimensions

  1. Panel opening: φ22mm
    Fixing method: nut locking, suitable for 1-6mm panel thickness
    Wiring method: screw crimping, the wiring is firm and reliable

7.Application fields

✅ CNC machine tools, automated production lines
✅ Distribution box, control cabinet, operating console
✅ Start and stop control of fans, water pumps and motors
✅ Lifting equipment, construction machinery, security equipment

8.Precautions for use

1.Confirm that the voltage and current match the equipment parameters before installation.
2.The emergency stop button must be connected to a normally closed contact to ensure safety
3.Illuminated buttons need to match the indicator light voltage to avoid burning out
4.It is recommended to install a waterproof cover in outdoor/humid environments
5.It is prohibited to use over rated load to extend the service life.
