This two-position, key-operated switch features a Chrome Bezel and belongs to Eaton's widely specified E22 pushbutton and selector switch series. Rated to multiple NEMA enclosure types and CE Marked, it is engineered for reliable performance in industrial control panels, machine interfaces, and OEM equipment where secure mode selection is required.

Eaton E22KF4 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size panel cutout does the Eaton E22KF4 key selector switch need?
The E22KF4 mounts in a standard 22.5 mm panel hole, which is the common cutout for industrial pushbuttons and selector switches. If your enclosure or panel is already drilled for 22.5 mm devices, this drops straight in with no rework.
2) Can the Eaton E22 key selector switch be used in a washdown or outdoor enclosure?
Yes. The E22 key-operated selector switch carries NEMA 3, 3R, 4, 4X, 12 and 13 ratings, so it holds up in washdown areas, food and beverage plants, and outdoor-rated enclosures as well as standard indoor control panels. It is also CE Marked for export machinery builds.
3) How many contact blocks can I stack on the Eaton E22KF4 selector switch?
With the 3-way mounting adapter that comes with it, the E22KF4 takes up to 2 contact blocks, giving you 4 circuits. If you need more, an optional 5-way adapter raises that to 5 contact blocks and 10 circuits. Contact blocks themselves are ordered separately from the operator.
4) Can the key be removed in both positions on the Eaton E22 key selector switch?
No. Key removal on the E22KF4 is possible from the maintained position only. That is what makes it useful for access control: an operator can leave the switch locked in the safe or normal position and take the key, but cannot walk away with the machine left in the other mode.
5) Is the Eaton E22KF4 a two-position or three-position selector switch?
Two positions. The E22KF4 actuator gives two distinct detented selections, which suits on/off or manual/auto mode selection. If your schematic calls for a three-position selector (for example hand/off/auto), this is the wrong operator and you need a three-position E22 device instead.
6) Will the Eaton E22KF4 work alongside other E22 pushbuttons in the same control station?
Yes. The E22KF4 is part of Eaton's E22 pushbutton, indicating light and selector switch platform, so it shares the 22.5 mm mounting and the same contact block and adapter system used across the series. That lets you build a station of E22 buttons, lights and this key switch on one common cutout pattern.
7) What do I still need to order to make an Eaton E22 key selector switch functional?
The operator is the key switch and bezel with its 3-way mounting adapter. You add the contact blocks to suit your circuit, normally open or normally closed as the schematic requires, up to 2 blocks on the supplied adapter. Go to the 5-way adapter only if you need more than 4 circuits off the one operator.
8) Does the Eaton E22 key switch come with a chrome or plastic bezel?
Chrome. The E22KF4 uses a metal chrome-finished bezel, which is what most panel builders match when the rest of the station is chrome-bezel E22 pushbuttons and pilot lights. If your existing panel is standardized on black plastic bezels, the appearance will not match.
