M22-DRL-G-X1 flat green illuminated push button, non-self-returning 216959

EATON M22-DRL-G-X1 Button Actuator – Reliability and Functionality in One

This flat, green illuminated button actuator, catalog number 216959, is part of EATON’s M22 series, designed for use in a wide range of devices and installations. It features a non-return mechanism, meaning it remains in the activated position after being pressed until pressed again. This is particularly useful in applications requiring sustained signal or state retention.

Design and Specifications

The actuator is constructed from high-quality plastic, ensuring durability and resistance to mechanical damage. The titanium-colored face ring enhances aesthetic appeal and complements most control panels. The round lens shape and IP67/IP69K protection rating guarantee resistance to dust and water ingress, making it ideal for harsh industrial environments. The mounting hole diameter is 22.5 mm, with hole width and height measuring 22 mm and 6 mm respectively—ensuring seamless integration with existing panels. The front protection rating (NEMA) 4X further confirms its resilience in demanding conditions.

Applications and Benefits

The M22-DRL-G-X1 actuator is suitable for use in a broad spectrum of control devices, including:

• Operator panels
• Control cabinets
• Industrial automation equipment
• Special-purpose machinery and equipment

The illuminated button ensures intuitive operation even in poorly lit areas. Text labeling on the button allows clear identification of its function, enhancing safety and operational efficiency. The non-return design enables precise process control and clear device state signaling. Additionally, the face ring improves mounting stability and protects internal components from damage. Installation is simple and fast thanks to standardized mounting hole dimensions.
