Frequently Asked Questions

When should I replace Rees contact blocks?

  • Replace when they exhibit signs of physical damage or wear, impacting their performance.
  • Replace when there are issues with the electrical connections, leading to unreliable operation.
  • Replace when they fail to function properly despite attempts to troubleshoot or repair.
  • When they do not meet the required safety standards or specifications for your application.

What factors should I consider while choosing a Rees pushbutton operator?

  • The specific application requirements and environmental conditions.
  • The desired operation type, whether momentary or maintained.
  • The appropriate size and shape that best fits your control panel or setup.
  • The material and build quality for durability and reliability.
  • The color and labeling options for clear and intuitive usage.

What are the differences between a hazardous location control station switch and another general purpose switch?

A hazardous location control station switch is used in places where there might be flammable gases or dust. It is built with extra protection to prevent sparks that could cause an explosion. On the other hand, a general-purpose switch is made for regular environments without such risks and doesn't have the same level of protection against sparks or explosions.
