Pushbutton switch Karlik 7DWP-44.1, silver, 250V AC, 10A, IP20/IP44

Karlik 7DWP-44.1 is a silver pushbutton switch designed for control and signalling applications. It accepts alternating current up to 250 V and is rated for a nominal current of 10 A. The device is intended for panel mounting and offers two protection class options: IP20 for standard indoor installations and, when fitted appropriately, IP44 for installations requiring additional splash protection. The switch belongs to the DECO family and can be configured with separate accessories for illuminated or hermetic operation.

Advantages

The switch provides a compact mechanical design and a metal-coloured finish that integrates into varied control panels and switchboards. Dual protection capability (IP20/IP44) allows flexible use in dry indoor environments or in locations where splash protection is needed. The rated electrical parameters—250 V AC and 10 A—cover a wide range of common control circuits. Compatibility with DECO light modules enables optional illuminated operation, while a separate sealant accessory allows upgrading to hermetic protection where applicable.

Suitable for

• Control panels and operator stations in residential and commercial buildings
• Signalling circuits and pushbutton control of motors or relays within rated limits
• Indoor installations requiring standard protection (IP20) or splash-protected locations when sealed to IP44

Key specifications

• Contact type: pushbutton actuator for momentary or maintained control (per DECO family design)
• Supply voltage: up to 250 V AC
• Nominal current: 10 A
• Protection rating: IP20 standard; IP44 achievable with appropriate sealing accessory
• Finish/color: silver
• Mounting: panel-mounted switch for indoor or protected outdoor locations

How to use

Install the pushbutton into a compatible panel cutout following the manufacturer's mechanical dimensions and tightening instructions. Connect the input and output conductors to the switch terminals in accordance with local electrical codes and the circuit diagram for the application. For splash-protected use, fit the separate hermetic sealant accessory according to the DECO accessory instructions to achieve IP44 protection. If illuminated operation is required, install a compatible DECO light module (sold separately) that matches the switch variant and wiring scheme.

Usage recommendations

Verify that system voltage and load current do not exceed the specified 250 V AC and 10 A ratings. Use appropriate wiring cross-sections and overcurrent protection devices. When converting to IP44, use the dedicated sealant accessory and ensure correct assembly to maintain the specified level of protection. Choose compatible DECO light modules where illumination is needed, and avoid mixing incompatible switch variants and accessories.
