Altech Corp. 22mm Illuminated Mushroom Push Button 2ALM7LB-012

The 22mm Illuminated Mushroom Push Button, part number 2ALM7LB-012, from Altech Corp. is designed for robust control applications. It conforms to several standards including IEC 60947-5-1, VDE0660, CSA - C22.2 No. 14-95, and UL508, ensuring reliability and safety in various environments. The button features a degree of protection rated at IP 65, making it suitable for use in harsh conditions, and is rated for a temperature range of -25¬8C to +70¬8C (-13¬8F to +158¬8F). The contact block is certified by ASTA UK and supports a maximum terminal capacity of 2 x 1.5 mm¬= (2x16 AWG) or 1 x 2.5 mm¬= (1x14 AWG). It has a rated insulation voltage of 500V and a rated thermal current of 10A. The button operates with a self-wiping, slow break mechanism and can be configured as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). It has a mechanical life exceeding 1 million operations, making it suitable for high-usage applications. For illuminated versions, the current consumption varies by voltage, with a maximum of 20 mA for 24 VAC/DC, 100 VAC, and 240 VAC, and a service life of 100,000 hours at nominal voltage. This push button is a practical choice for engineers seeking a durable and efficient control solution.
