Eaton 86-2881-5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Eaton 862 Series pushbutton element fit a standard 30mm panel cutout?
Yes. The Eaton 862 Series pushbutton element mounts in a standard 30mm panel cutout, which is the common heavy-duty pilot device hole size on industrial control panels. If your panel is already drilled for 30mm operators, this drops into the same opening.
2) Does the Eaton 862 Series pushbutton element come with a contact block?
No. It is the operator element only, the part the person actually presses. To build a working station you add the Eaton 30mm contact blocks for your NO/NC requirements, the housing or enclosure, and a legend plate if the button needs to be marked. Order those separately.
3) Which model numbers are available for the Eaton 30mm 862 Series pushbutton element?
Two models are offered: Eaton 86-2881-5 and 86-2994-7. Both are 30mm 862 Series pushbutton elements, so give the panel builder the full part number when you order so the right one lands on the bench.
4) Can I use this Eaton pushbutton element to standardize operators across several machines in my plant?
That is what the 862 Series platform is built for. Because the element mounts to a 30mm cutout and pairs with Eaton 30mm housings, contact blocks and legend plates, a maintenance or MRO group can stock one operator platform and configure each station by changing contact blocks and legends rather than changing the operator family.
5) Is an Eaton 862 Series pushbutton element the same thing as a complete pushbutton control station?
No, and it is a common mix-up when ordering. A complete control station is a housing, operator, contact blocks and legend plate assembled. What you get here is the pushbutton element alone. If you need a ready-to-wire station on a machine, buy the enclosure and blocks as well, or specify a pre-assembled station instead.
