4. Installation Ease: Standard 2.8mm pins and threaded mounting make integration seamless for any panel.
Applications
The round push button switch is an essential component for controlling power flow in countless devices. Whether as a primary power switch or a functional trigger, it is found in Industrial control panels, CNC machines, Marine systems, and Electrical cabinets.
Installation Guide
- Prepare Panel: Cut a 16mm hole in the mounting panel.
- Insert Switch: Place the switch into the hole from the front.
- Secure: Tighten the metal hex nut from the back to fix it to the panel.
- Wiring: Connect the 5-PIN terminals to your circuit.
3-PIN Push Button Switch Wiring Guide
A 3-PIN switch consists of a Common (C), Normally Open (NO), and Normally Closed (NC) terminal. Use these connections to control whether a device turns on or off when pressed.
- C (Common): Power input terminal.
- NO (Normally Open): Connects only when pressed.
- NC (Normally Closed): Disconnects when pressed.
Method 1: Normally Open (NO) Connection
Logic: Device stays OFF by default and turns ON only when pressed.
- Wiring: Power (+) to C, Device (+) to NO.
- Applications: Door bells, PC power buttons, car horns, momentary starters.

Method 2: Normally Closed (NC) Connection
Logic: Device stays ON by default and turns OFF only when pressed.
- Wiring: Power (+) to C, Device (+) to NC.
- Applications: Emergency stops, limit switches, fridge door light control.

Industry Knowledge
The Importance of the Round Push Button Switch
In industrial automation, the 16mm round button is the "face" of the machine. Its round ergonomics allow for comfortable use, while the metal shell provides a premium aesthetic and tactile feedback that plastic alternatives cannot match.
Comparison: Latching vs. Momentary
| Type | Operation | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Momentary | Resets when released | Horn, Starter button |
| Latching | Locks in place (On/Off) | Main power switch |
