12 Volt Momentary Push Button Switch 22mm Metal Waterproof 15cm Pre-wired FILN

The 12 volt momentary push button switch (Model: FLM22-FW-1-E) is a high-performance industrial control component engineered by FILN. This 22mm metal switch features a pre-wired design with 15cm leads, significantly reducing installation time and complexity. With a robust IP65 waterproof rating and IK08 impact resistance, it is ideal for demanding environments. Our switches carry ISO9001, CE, VDE, RoHS, SGS, and UL certifications, ensuring global compliance and safety. Whether used in automation equipment, marine systems, or CNC machines, this 12v-led-power-button-with-wire-leads provides reliable tactile feedback and a brilliant LED ring indicator for clear status visualization, even in dark environments.

Choosing the right LED color for your 22mm-waterproof-momentary-switch is crucial for operator safety and process efficiency:

• Red: Indicates danger, emergency stop, or a system fault.
• Green: Signifies normal operation, "Ready," or "System Start."
• Yellow: Acts as a warning or indicates a transitional state.
• Blue: Often used for mandatory actions or specific status signals.
• White: Used as a general power indicator or backlight for dark environments.

1. Superior Protection and Durability

With an IP65 & IK08 rating, this switch thrives where others fail. It is dust-tight, protected against water jets, and resistant to physical impacts, making it perfect for weatherproof-marine-grade-push-button applications.

2. Optimized Electrical Load (5A)

Capable of handling up to 5A 250V AC/DC, it allows direct control over high-power devices without the need for additional relays, simplifying your industrial-control-panel-button-switch design.

3. Premium Silver Contacts

The AgCdO12 silver contacts ensure low contact resistance (< 50mΩ) and excellent anti-arcing performance, extending the device's electrical life.

4. Pre-wired Efficiency

Our 12v-led-power-button-with-wire-leads features factory-soldered 15cm cables, ensuring a secure, waterproof seal and reducing labor costs during mass production.

FILN push button switches are utilized globally in critical industries:

• Industrial Control Panels: Precision management of machinery.
• CNC Machines: High-durability operation buttons.
• Automation Equipment: Reliable sensing and control.
• Marine Systems: Saltwater-resistant weatherproof-marine-grade-push-button solutions.
• Medical Devices: Cleanable and durable interfaces.

1. Drill a 22mm hole in the mounting panel.
2. Insert the switch from the front of the panel.
3. Secure the switch from the back using the provided metal hex nut and rubber gasket.
4. Connect the pre-wired leads to your power source and device according to the wiring diagram.

4 Pin Push Button Switch Wiring Diagram

A 4-PIN switch consists of two parts: Switch Contacts (to control the device) and LED Terminals (marked with + and -). Below are two ways to wire the LED indicator.

Method 1: LED Synchronized with Device (On when Active)

Logic: The button light only turns ON when the device is running. It serves as a "Status Indicator."

• Wiring: Connect LED (+) to the Output side of the switch. LED (-) to Power Negative.
• Applications: Power start buttons, car fog lights, industrial machinery.
• Benefit: Saves power; provides visual feedback that the system is active.

Method 2: LED Always ON (Backlight Mode)

Logic: The button light stays ON constantly as long as there is power, regardless of the button position.

• Wiring: Connect LED (+) directly to the Power Positive. LED (-) to Power Negative.
• Applications: Dark environments, hallway switches, standby power indicators.
• Benefit: Allows you to find the switch easily in total darkness.

What is a 12 Volt Momentary Push Button Switch?

A momentary switch is a control device that only maintains its state while it is being physically pressed. In industrial environments, these are essential for "Pulse" signals, such as triggering a starter, a horn, or a computer reset. The 12V rating makes it compatible with most automotive, marine, and light industrial circuits.

1. Is this 22mm 4-pin switch waterproof?
Yes, it is IP65 rated, making it resistant to dust and water splashes.

2. Can I use this 12V switch on a 24V system?
The switch contacts support up to 250V, but the LED is voltage-specific. We offer 12-24V and 110-220V versions, or custom voltages upon request.

3. What is the benefit of the pre-wired design?
The factory-sealed pre-wired-led-push-button-switch ensures a 100% waterproof connection at the base and saves you time on manual soldering.

4. Does the LED ring stay on all the time?
You can wire it to be "Always ON" as a backlight or "Sync" to turn on only when the button is active.

5. What material is the black shell?
The black shell is made of high-quality aluminum alloy with an anodized finish for superior corrosion resistance.

6. Can FILN customize the wire length?
Yes, the standard length is 15cm, but we can customize any length to fit your specific application.

7. Is there a latching version of this 22mm button?
Yes, we produce both momentary and latching (self-locking) versions of the FLM22 series.

8. What is the peak current this switch can handle?
The switch is rated for a 5A resistive load at 250VAC.

9. Are these buttons suitable for marine use?
Absolutely. The stainless steel and IP65 rating make them excellent weatherproof-marine-grade-push-button choices.

10. Does FILN provide technical support for wiring?
Yes, our engineering team provides full wiring diagrams and technical support for all industrial customers.
