RAFIX control units are modular units consisting of several parts. In the RAFIX 22 QR family, they always consist of an actuating element, coupling, and switching element, or of a light attachment, coupling, and lamp socket. For assembly, the switching elements and lamp holders are first snapped into the coupling. Then this unit is snapped onto the actuating element or the signal lamp. To release, a bayonet lever must be actuated.
For illuminable actuators and indicator lights, please use a lamp socket / LED element as the middle element in the coupling.
Switching elements marked in different colors prevent confusion in the bearing and when connecting:
- 1/2 NC contacts = 1/2 red side cover
- 1/2 normally open contacts = 1/2 green side covers
- 1 NC and 1 NO contact = 1 red and 1 green side cover
- Silver contacts = housing base color black
- Gold contacts = housing base color gray
- Lamp socket and LED element = completely black
- The connections belonging to a pair of contacts are marked in color on the connection side and provided with contact identification numbers: 1-2 = NC contact, 3-4 = NO contact
- Safe switching due to silver contacts (max. 400 V)
- Scope of delivery with coupling
Additional information according to UL certificate:
- The terminals are suitable for factory and field wiring.
- The terminals should be mounted with solid or stranded wires.
- During the temperature test, wiring terminals reached 112°C. The temperature rating of conductors used to connect to these devices shall be rated for at least 112°C.
Use according to UL:
RAFIX control devices are defined at RAFI as modular elements, consisting of an actuating element, if necessary a coupling and an individual contact or lighting unit.
Actuating elements (such as pushbuttons, emergency stop actuators, etc.) have the intended tactility, reset and function only when assembled with the appropriate switching elements.
