The **M2PHS2L-BA-R2** is a specific part number typically associated with **M2 Series Industrial Push Button Switches**, often manufactured by companies like Autonics or similar industrial automation brands. Below is the technical breakdown of its electronic and mechanical components. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a nomenclature that defines its electrical behavior and physical build: | Feature | Specification | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Series** | M2PH | Ø22/25mm Pilot Light / Push Button | | **Illumination** | Non-Illuminated | Standard mechanical operation | | **Action Type** | Momentary | Returns to original state when released | | **Button Shape** | Extended | The actuator protrudes for easier pressing | | **Contact Block** | 1 NO + 1 NC | 1 Normally Open and 1 Normally Closed contact | | **Current Rating** | 5A to 10A | Depends on voltage (AC/DC) | | **Mounting Hole** | 22mm / 25mm | Standard industrial panel cutout | --- ### 2. Electronic Components & Contacts The "Electronic" side of this device refers primarily to the **Contact Block** assembly located at the rear of the switch. * **Contact Configuration (BA-R2):** * **B:** Standard contact block mounting. * **A:** 1a1b configuration (1 Normally Open + 1 Normally Closed). * **R2:** Color coding (Red) and specific revision/mounting style. * **Wiping Action:** The contacts usually feature a sliding/wiping mechanism to clear oxidation each time the button is pressed, ensuring high electrical reliability. * **Terminal Type:** Screw terminals are standard, allowing for secure wiring of 14–22 AWG cables. --- ### 3. Mechanical & Environmental Characteristics Industrial switches must withstand harsh environments. The M2PH series typically includes: * **Durability:** * *Mechanical Life:* ~1,000,000 operations. * *Electrical Life:* ~100,000 operations at full load. * **Protection Rating:** Usually **IP65** (Dust-tight and protected against water jets), provided the rubber gasket is installed correctly. * **Material:** High-impact plastic and copper alloy contacts with silver plating for conductivity. --- ### 4.
