Eaton M22-DRH-Y – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Eaton M22 pushbutton come with contact blocks, or do I have to order those separately?
What you are buying here is the operator head only. The M22 is a modular platform: the head, the contact blocks, and the legend plate are separate pieces that assemble together behind the panel. Plan on ordering the normally open and/or normally closed contact blocks you need for your circuit, plus a mounting adapter and legend plate if the application calls for one. Nothing about the head itself determines your contact arrangement.
2) Is this a maintained or momentary pushbutton?
Maintained. The actuator latches in position when pressed and stays there until it is pressed again, which is what you want for an on/off or run/stop selector-style function. If your control scheme needs a spring-return button (a momentary start pulse into a seal-in circuit, for example), this is the wrong actuator function.
3) Will an Eaton M22 pushbutton hold up in a machine shop with coolant and oil spray?
It carries a NEMA 13 degree of protection, which covers dust, oil, and non-corrosive coolant on the panel face. That makes it suitable for machine tool and process equipment enclosures. NEMA 13 is an indoor rating, so it is not the pick for a washdown or outdoor location where you would be specifying a higher enclosure type.
4) Should I pick the extended actuator or the mushroom head on the M22 operator?
Two actuator styles are offered. The extended button sits proud of the bezel for a defined, deliberate press, which suits a routine on/off function on a machine panel. The mushroom head gives a large striking surface that can be hit with a palm or a gloved hand, typical of a stop or shutdown function. Both are maintained and non-illuminated on this operator, so the choice is about how the operator is meant to be actuated, not about the switching behavior. Extended is M22-DRH-Y; mushroom is M22-DRP-R.
5) How many cycles is this M22 operator rated for on a high-use start station?
The mechanical operating life is validated at 1,000,000 cycles. On an operator station pressed a few hundred times a shift, that is years of service before the head becomes the limiting part. Keep in mind the rating is mechanical life for the actuator; electrical life depends on the contact blocks you pair with it and the load they are switching.
6) Do I need to run a separate supply for lamp voltage with this pushbutton?
No. The operator is non-illuminated, so there is no lamp block and no control voltage to land for indication. Wiring is limited to the contact block terminals. If the panel legend calls for a lit button to show state, you would need an illuminated M22 head and the matching LED element instead.
