Replacement of Lens and Marking Plate
• Removal
Remove the lens assembly (color lens, marking plate, lens holder,
and spring) by holding the color lens recesses with the Lens
Removal Tool (MT-101) and pulling it out. Remove the marking plate
by disengaging the latches between the color lens and lens holder.
The marking plate must be
engraved on the front side
as shown at right.
When using a color film,
insert it between the color
lens and marking plate.
• Installation
Place the marking plate on
the lens holder in the correct direction, and press the color lens onto
the lens holder to engage the latches.
Put the spring on the lens holder and insert the lens holder into the
housing in the correct direction.
Marking
For A series illuminated pushbuttons, legends and symbols can be
engraved on the built-in marking plates, or printed film can be
inserted under the lens for labelling purposes.

Panel Mounting
When mounting the control units into a panel, use the optional
locking ring wrench (MT-001) to tighten the locking ring. Do not use
pliers. Tightening torque must not exceed 0.88 N·m. Excessive
tightening will damage the locking ring.
Wiring
Solder the terminal at 350°C within 3 seconds using a 60W
soldering iron. Sn-Ag-Cu type is recommended when using lead-
free solder. When soldering, do not touch the control unit with the
soldering iron. Also ensure that no tensile force is applied to the
terminal. Do not bend the terminal or apply excessive force to the
terminal. Use a non-corrosive rosin flux.
Installing the Socket
Install the socket on the control unit with the TOP markings on the
control unit and the socket placed in the same direction.
Switch Guard
Waterproof (IP65) / oiltight type switch guards must be used with
waterproof (IP65) / oiltight type control units only. Even if IP65 type
switch guards are installed, enclosed type (IP40) control units are
not made waterproof.
Operating Voltage of LED Lamps
The operating voltage of 5V DC is measured at complete DC.
Other Notes
• Close Proximity Mounting
When mounting pilot lights or illuminated pushbuttons collectively or
lighting them continuously, heat may cause the ambient
temperature to rise above the rated operating temperature. When
the mounting panel is not made of metal or when the control units
are mounted in an enclosed panel, provide for ventilation or lower
the operating voltage.
• Replacement of Buttons (Illuminated/Non-illuminated)
Do not replace buttons of maintained action units while the button is
in the locked position. Replacing the button in the locked position
may damage the internal mechanism. Be sure to release the button
before replacing.
• Operating and Storage Environment
1. Make sure that the operating/storage temperature and humidity
2. Do not use enclosed type units in an environment subject to oil,
• Microswitch Contacts
Do not connect NO and NC contacts of a microswitch to different
voltages or different power sources to prevent a dead short-circuit.
• IP65 Type Units
IP65 type units are evaluated by conventional cutting and cooling
oils, and can not be used with some special oils. Contact IDEC for
resistance against specific oils.
