The **M2PP-11R-R/CE** is a high-quality electronic component primarily used in industrial automation and control panels. It belongs to the **M2PP series** of pushbuttons, typically manufactured by companies like **IDEC** or similar industrial controls providers. --- ### 1. General Specifications This part is a **non-illuminated, momentary pushbutton switch**. Below is a breakdown of its technical characteristics: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Series** | M2PP (Rectangular Body) | | **Action** | Momentary (Spring Return) | | **Contact Form** | SPDT (1 Changeover / 1C) | | **Button Color** | Red (indicated by the "-R") | | **Bezel Shape** | Rectangular | | **Termination** | Solder / Tab Terminal | | **Certification** | CE (European Conformity) | --- ### 2. Breakdown of the Model Code The part number can be decoded to understand its specific electronic and mechanical properties: * **M2PP**: The product series identifier (Rectangular, Pilot/Pushbutton type). * **1**: Denotes the contact configuration (typically SPDT - Single Pole Double Throw). * **1**: Denotes the contact material/rating (Standard silver contacts). * **R**: Indicates the button shape/style (Rectangular). * **R**: The color of the actuator (Red). * **CE**: Compliance marking, indicating it meets European safety, health, and environmental protection requirements. --- ### 3. Electrical and Mechanical Performance Electronic components like the M2PP-11R-R require specific operating conditions to ensure longevity: #### Electrical Ratings * **Rated Insulation Voltage (Ui):** 250V AC/DC. * **Thermal Current (Ith):** Typically around 3A to 5A (depending on the specific load type). * **Contact Resistance:** 50mΩ maximum (initial value). #### Mechanical Durability * **Operating Life:** Approximately 1,000,000 operations (mechanical). * **Electrical Life:** 100,000 operations minimum at full rated load. * **Degree of Protection:** Usually IP40 (Dust-proof, not waterproof). --- ### 4. Common Applications Due to its rectangular form factor and momentary action, this part is frequently found in: 1. **Control Panels:** Used as "Stop" or "Reset" buttons. 2. **Medical Equipment:** Interface buttons for diagnostic machinery. 3. **Laboratory Instruments:** Small-scale control switches. 4. **Audio/Visual Gear:** Signal routing and power-on triggers.
