Eaton M22S-ST-GB0 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Eaton M22 legend plate fit a standard 22.5 mm pushbutton hole?
Yes. The M22 legend plate is sized at 22.5 mm to match the M22 modular platform, so it mounts on the same 22.5 mm panel cutout used by M22 pushbuttons and indicating lights. It goes on as a complete holder-and-insert assembly, so there is no separate carrier to source.
2) Can I use this Eaton legend plate in a washdown or dusty plant area?
It carries IP66, NEMA 4X and NEMA 13 ratings, so it holds up to hose-down water, dust, and oil or coolant exposure, and the 4X rating covers corrosive locations. That suits food plants, wet process areas, and outdoor-adjacent operator stations, provided the enclosure and the device behind it are rated to match.
3) What inscriptions can I get on the Eaton M22 legend plate?
Inscription is chosen by the configuration code you order. The M22S-ST series covers the etched legends GB0, GB1, GB5, GB7, GB10, GB11 and GB12. Beyond those, M22-XBK and M22-XBK5 are blank plates you label yourself, and M22-XZK-GB99 is the GB99 variant. Pick the code that matches the function you are labeling, since the legend is fixed at the part number.
4) Which M22 part number do I order for a START button label?
M22S-ST-GB1 is the etched START plate, etching code GB1, in black. Order it as the complete holder with insert and it drops straight onto the M22 operator at the panel face.
5) What is the difference between the M22-XBK blank plate and the M22S-ST etched plates?
M22-XBK and M22-XBK5 are blank legend plates, so you apply your own marking for non-standard functions or a second language. The M22S-ST parts come pre-etched with a fixed legend such as GB1 for START. If your panel drawing calls out custom wording, take the blank; if it calls out a standard machine function, take the etched code.
6) Does the Eaton M22 legend plate come with the pushbutton, or do I order that separately?
The legend plate ships as the holder and insert only. The operator itself, whether an M22 pushbutton or indicating light, plus its contact blocks and mounting adapter, are separate orders. Panel builders should count one plate per device when they take off the quantity.
7) How much panel face space does the M22 legend plate take up?
Each plate measures 2 in wide by 2 in deep by 1.38 in high. That footprint matters when you are laying out a dense operator station, because adjacent 22.5 mm devices have to be spaced so the plates do not overlap.
8) Will the Eaton M22 legend plate work on equipment being shipped to China or Russia?
The plate is CCC marked and GoST-R compliant, which is what OEMs building export machinery for those markets typically need on the panel components. The device behind it still has to carry its own approvals.
9) Is the M22 legend plate black or does it come in other colors?
Black, across the range. The legend itself is etched for contrast against that black background, which is what gives the readable function label at the operator station. Color selection on M22 happens at the button or lens, not the plate.
