The food and beverage industries can be challenging for even the most robust push buttons stations where high-pressure and caustic wash-downs can cause downtime.
Responding to this challenge, Routeco introduces IP69K rated push button station solutions designed to:
Responding to this challenge, Routeco introduces IP69K rated push button station solutions designed to:
- Minimise production loss due to cleaning procedures
- Minimise frequent replacement due to corrosion
- Minimise bacteria growth potential from crevices
- Provide UL Certified products for industrial panels
The Rockwell Automation 22.5mm push buttons represent an innovative rethinking of push button technology and its industrial applications. They use a potted piezoelectric circuit in an SAE grade 316 stainless-steel body and achieve an IP69K rating. The piezoelectric circuit detects pressure on the surface of the button to provide a momentary actuation signal with no moving parts. A smooth, crevice-free button surface is the result.
800K buttons are available in illuminated and non-illuminated versions. The illuminated buttons use a translucent light pipe to bring the red, green or white LED illumination to a ring on the crevice-free operating surface. Red illuminated buttons have a single normally-closed circuit while all other models are provided with a single normally-open circuit. The momentary contacts can be directly connected to a programmable controller or with an appropriate interposing relay.
Push Button Station Features and Benefits
IP69K Rating
- Protected against close-range high pressure, high temperature caustic wash
- Ideal for food, beverage, pharmaceutical and similar application environments
316 Stainless-steel Push Buttons
- Corrosion resistant to caustic wash-down solutions
- Easier to clean
- Minimizes areas in which contaminates can potentially be lodged
No Moving Parts
- By using piezoelectric technology, moving seals and crevices can be eliminated from the push buttons, avoiding potential sources for failure
Potted Circuits
- Helps prevent fluids from corroding operator components
- Provides an additional barrier of protection
Custom Laser Push Button Engraving
- Avoids potentially contaminate trapping legend plates
- Provides flexibility to address a wide range of applications
