More details
No power without pressure. Also luminescent.
Rocker buttons differ from rocker switches in that the circuit does not remain closed after actuation, but opens again automatically as soon as the pressure on the rocker ends. The reason for this is a spring that returns the rocker to its original position. Rocker buttons, also known as impulse switches, are particularly suitable for operating doorbells and door openers and, in conjunction with a relay, also for staircase switching.
The accordingly labelled models have an insert with luminescent pigments (free of radioactive substances, lead, cadmium, chrome and the like) on the rocker. When exposed to light, these pigments become charged with energy and glow reliably in the dark. This purely physical process guarantees long-lasting function without signs of wear and ensures that the button is easy to find even in the dark. Alternatively, we also offer models with classic glow lamps underneath the push-buttons.
Covers & Combinations
Covers and combination options.
All switches and sockets are supplied without external cover!
The inserts can be combined with the various covers of the series and thus used in a wide variety of configurations. Round single covers, double covers and round system covers are available. You can combine all switches and sockets of the porcelain switch series with these covers. For the antenna and telephone inserts and their offshoots, there are special single and system covers that have a larger inner diameter. The system and double covers can be used in existing installations without any problems, as they have been developed according to the standard distances. The porcelain switch range fits in all standard flush-mounted boxes.
The individual parts of the porcelain switch range are not compatible with our other switch ranges.
