Push Buttons, Switches, Emergency Stops and Pilot Lights

As the world-leader of push buttons, switches and pilot lights, Harmony range is the benchmark for operator efficiency and effectiveness. It ensures a robust, safe, ergonomic and easy control of machines and manufacturing lines. Furthermore, in the context of IoT, Harmony includes intelligent, connected products that gather and process data, enabling customers to make informed decisions.

What are push buttons used for?

Due of their superior functionality over conventional switches, push buttons are frequently utilized in industrial applications. Pushbuttons can be used to connect to other mechanical applications via linkages, in contrast to typical switches, which can only perform one function

Push button switch types

Single pole, single throw (SPST), single pole, double throw (SPDT), double pole, single throw (DPST), and double pole, double throw are the most popular types of button switches. Since an SPST only has two terminals, it can only open and close one circuit at a time. It could be used, for instance, to turn on and off a motor. An SPDT can control two distinct circuits because it has three terminals. It can therefore be used to switch between powering two different LEDs or to switch an item of equipment from the sleep mode to the active mode. Two separate circuits may be controlled simultaneously using DPST and DPDT switch configurations.
