2-position switch actuator M22-WK 216865

Universal Switch Actuator for Demanding Applications

This two-position M22-WK switch actuator from Eaton is a robust and reliable solution for controlling electrical circuits. Designed for both professional and end-user applications, it ensures safe and efficient operation under diverse conditions. Its durable construction and high protection rating make it an ideal choice for installations exposed to harsh environmental conditions.

Design and Functionality

The M22-WK switch actuator features a round lens and a black control element. A titanium-colored front ring, made from high-quality plastic, enhances its aesthetic appeal and ensures long-term durability. The switch includes a self-return function, meaning it automatically returns to the neutral position when released. The mounting hole diameter is 22.5 mm, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of enclosures and control panels. The front ring increases sealing integrity and resistance to mechanical damage.

Protection and Safety

The switch actuator meets high protection standards: IP66 on the front side, as well as NEMA 4X and 13 ratings, guaranteeing resistance to dust and water ingress. This allows reliable operation in humid or dusty environments without risk of failure. The device is certified by CSA, UL, and complies with IEC/EN 60947-5 and VDE standards, confirming its safety and reliability. The RMQ-Titan control and signaling device family, to which this actuator belongs, also features high mechanical and electrical endurance of control elements, with markings resistant to abrasion thanks to laser engraving technology.

Applications

The M22-WK switch actuator is widely used in:

• Control panels
• Operator panels
• Industrial machinery and equipment
• Building automation systems
• Electrical installations requiring reliable control
• Applications demanding high resistance to atmospheric and mechanical damage

Thanks to its versatility, this actuator performs reliably in both new installations and upgrades of existing control systems. The ability to reprogram non-self-return buttons for self-return functions further enhances its flexibility.
