M22-WS drive with key switch, 2-position 216881

Key Switch – Reliability and Safety in One

This two-position key switch M22-WS is a robust solution for controlling devices requiring additional protection against unauthorized access. Ideal for industrial applications, machinery, and equipment where a key provides an extra layer of security. The design with a removable key in the “0” position ensures that the device cannot be accidentally started.

Construction and Application

The switch is designed for mounting in holes with a diameter of 22.5 mm. Constructed from high-quality plastic and metal, it offers high resistance to mechanical damage and external factors. The IP66 protection rating guarantees sealing against dust and water jets, enabling use even in harsh environmental conditions. The switch is suitable for control cabinets, operator panels, and anywhere safe and controlled activation of machines and equipment is required.

Key Features and Benefits

• Removable Key: Provides enhanced security – the device can be turned off and locked by removing the key in the “0” position. This is especially critical in applications where access to control must be restricted to authorized personnel only.
• High Resistance to External Conditions: IP66 and NEMA 4X/13 protection ratings ensure reliable operation even in dusty and humid environments.
• Durable Construction: The front ring made of robust plastic and a solid internal structure ensure long-term device lifespan.
• Aesthetic Design: A black control element combined with a titanium front ring gives the device a modern appearance that complements various control panels.
• RMQ-Titan Modularity: This switch belongs to the RMQ-Titan series, enabling easy integration with other components of the series – pushbuttons, light indicators, etc. – to create comprehensive control systems.
• Wear Resistance: RMQ-Titan series features high mechanical durability of control elements and resistance of markings to abrasion thanks to laser technology.
• Programmability: Ability to change the operating mode (latching/non-latching) in rocker and key switches increases application flexibility.
