Application areas
The actuating and signaling elements in the SIRIUS ACT range have a front plate seal (with
self-sticking effect). As a result, a single person working alone can securely install actuators,
indicators, holders or contact and LED modules using just one hand.
Contact modules have high contact stability and can be combined with all types of actuator.
They are integrated using conventional controls or via AS-Interface.
Application areas:
● Control of machines
● Elevators
● Control cabinets
● Rail / marine applications
● Power plants
● Mills / presses
● etc.
Pushbuttons and indicator lights
Pushbuttons and indicator lights are used for switching, controlling and signaling of electrical
loads. Current operating states can be detected and switch positions can be indicated.
Key-operated switches
Key-operated switches are used for operations that deserve special protection, e.g., for
prevention of improper operator input.
Enclosures
When controllers are at a physically separate location, pushbuttons and indicator lights in
enclosures serve as manual control devices. The enclosures are equipped with the actuating
and signaling elements with nominal inside diameter = 22.5 mm.
The enclosed pushbuttons and indicator lights can be used with conventional controls or
connected to the AS-Interface bus system.
