Stair switch Kontakt-Simon Simon 100 10000201-039 press mechanism 1/2, 10 A 250V~ black

Stair switch Kontakt-Simon Simon 100 model 10000201-039 is a press-operated switch designed for controlling stairwell and corridor lighting. The device uses a compact 1/2 press mechanism rated for 10 A at 250 V~ and is supplied without a mounting frame. Its black finish and compatibility with Simon 100 series installations make it suitable for retrofit or new-construction projects where a straightforward single-click operation is required.

Advantages

The press mechanism provides a simple tactile action for on/off control with reliable electrical contact for loads up to the specified current and voltage. Designed to fit Simon 100 series installation systems, the unit integrates with common wall boxes and covers used in residential and light commercial settings. The absence of an included frame reduces packaging size and allows selection of a matching frame or cover to suit interior styling.

Suitable for

• Stairwell and corridor lighting control in residential buildings
• Simple on/off control of single lighting circuits in flats or small offices
• Retrofit projects where Simon 100 series compatible mechanisms are already installed
• Installations requiring a compact press-operated switch with a black finish

When it may not be suitable

This stair switch is not intended for multi-way or timed staircase lighting systems unless used in conjunction with compatible additional controls; it provides simple single-circuit on/off operation. It is also not suitable for switching loads that exceed the rated current or voltage, such as high-power motors or heating elements, without appropriate relay or contactor protection.

Key specifications

• Actuation: press-operated mechanism (1/2 module size)
• Rated current: 10 A
• Rated voltage: 250 V~ (AC)
• Color/finish: black
• Compatibility: fits Simon 100 series installation systems
• Supply: delivered without mounting frame

How to use

Mount the mechanism into a compatible Simon 100 series mounting frame and connect the line and load conductors to the designated terminals following local wiring regulations and ensuring power is isolated before work. After secure mechanical fastening into the wall box and fitting a chosen frame and cover, apply a single press to toggle the connected lighting circuit on or off. If integrating into a stair timer or multi-way circuit, follow the wiring diagram for the specific timer or multi-way switches used.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the switch will be installed within a Simon 100 series compatible frame or panel.
• Confirm the connected load does not exceed 10 A at 250 V~.
• Decide on a matching mounting frame and decorative cover, as these are not included.
• Check whether multi-way or timed lighting control is required and select additional components accordingly.

Usage recommendations

For safe and reliable operation, have installation and wiring performed by a qualified electrician, verify load characteristics before connection, and use an appropriate protective device (circuit breaker or fuse) sized for the circuit.
