Base for a two-way switch or two-way pull switch 16 AX/250 Vac, screw terminals

Mechanism for a two-way switch or two-way pull switch, with claw fixing. Two-way switches are used to operate one lamp from two different locations. A finishing set and faceplate in the colour of your choice must be ordered separately.

Base for a two-way switch or two-way pull switch 16 AX/250 Vac, screw terminals. The switch is equipped with block-shaped, silver contacts (cadmium-free) in the form of a cross. The sockets are fitted with cage clamps with permanent screws. These screws have combination screwheads (Pz1 or slot 1 x 5 mm). Moreover, every screw is provided with a screwdriver slot that prevents the screwdriver from sliding off the screwhead. All connection terminals are located at the top of the end socket and can contain up to 2 x 2.5 mm² of wire. The stripping length (8 mm) of the wires and the wiring diagram are indelibly indicated at the back of the base. The terminals and the switch symbol are indelibly indicated at the front. At the bottom, the base is equipped with rectangular recesses for integration of a lighting element. A lighting element with wires or an automatic lighting unit can be clicked in the left recess (front view). At the back, the base is equipped with round recesses that ensure that the automatic lighting element makes direct contact with the mechanism when being clicked in and, in this way, is immediately connected.

When mounting the socket outlet in a flush-mounting box with grip surfaces, use claws that can be rotated open using screws with a combination screwhead (Pz1 or slot 1 x 5 mm). The claws, which have a depth of engagement of 31 mm, can be manually pushed back into their original position after unscrewing. These claws can also be easily pushed out using a screwdriver. The flush-mounting frame is made from 1 mm-thick metal which is galvanized on all sides after cutting, even on the cut edges. On the horizontal and vertical axes, the flush-mounting frame has 4 grooves for screw mounting in flush-mounting boxes. These grooves have a screw aperture of 7 mm. For mounting on panels, the flush-mounting frame is equipped with 4 screw holes (indicated by a screw symbol) with a diameter of 3 mm. The middle of the flush-mounting frame is indicated (chalk line, laser, ..) in both the horizontal and vertical directions, so that mounting one or more mechanisms can be carried out quickly and easily. At the right and left sides, the flush-mounting frame is equipped with folded-up dovetails, allowing for a quick and perfect horizontal coupling of several switches. The folded-up edges on the outside of the base and their continuation to the inside ensure additional robustness. The bases can be coupled vertically with a centre-to-centre distance of 60 x 71 mm by sliding them into each other. They automatically lock into place. For horizontal coupling of bases with a centre-to-centre distance of 71 mm, the base is equipped with two pre-formed lips at the bottom. By folding these lips down over a length of 1 mm, this rests perfectly on the one below and the centre-to-centre distance of 71 mm is guaranteed. The 4 rectangular openings (7 x 2.5 mm) in the flush-mounting frame can compensate for a margin of 1 to 1.2 mm if the flush-mounting box protrudes beyond the plasterwork. In the case of such a margin, the faceplate can still butt up perfectly against the wall.
