The New
Control Component
Generation
RAFIX 22QR
The new
22 mm Control Component Generation
made by Rafi
Contact blocks marked with different
colours for ease of identification in stock
and when connecting:
• NC contacts: red
• NO contacts: green
• NC / NO contacts: red / green
• Lamp socket: black
• Silver contacts:
basic housing colour is black
• Gold contacts:
basic housing colour is grey
• The terminals associated with a contact
pair are colour coded on the connection
side and marked with the respective
contact numbers.
The lamps of pushbuttons and signal
lamps can be replaced from the front. This
method saves time and increases safety
since it eliminates the need for accessing
the machine / control station interior and
handling live cables for lamp replacement.
After unscrewing the front ring, the lens
can be removed and the lamp replaced.
The components feature a removable locating
lug. If installed without locating lug, the
ring nut with claw can be used. Accurate
alignment of the actuator can be achieved
behind the front panel. The cast-on collar
seal can not get lost nor be twisted during
installation and allows single-person assembly:
the actuator is held in the mounting hole
cast-on
collar seal
by the cast-on seal and can then be fixed
by screwing from the rear.
First, snap the lamp socket and contact
blocks into the coupling. Then snap the
assembly on to the actuator. To release
it, the bayonet lever must be pressed
(prevents inadvertent releasing at the
same time).
Screw terminals or cage clamp terminals
The RAFIX 22 QR contact blocks are available in two different connection
styles as required for your application:
Screw terminals:
The terminals are open and the
captive screws are mounted in the
terminal recess.
Cage clamp terminals:
Simply insert a screwdriver to open
the terminal, insert the cable and
remove the screwdriver to close the
terminal.

Easy assembly
of RAFIX 22 QR.
Your
advantage:
Insert the wire.
Open the terminal.
This offers you savings in three ways:
• Drastically reduced assembly time thanks to wire insertion from the
rear, i.e. no more bending and lateral insertion of the wires required.
• You save material: No wire end sleeves are required.
• You save the time previously required for mounting the wire end
sleeves.
Sealed for life against humidity and dirt
The special seal reliably prevents
moisture, oil and dust from penetrating
to the contact block. In contrast to other
sealing types which move up and down the
shaft, this special seal is firmly seated on the
housing.This is why the RAFIX 22QR range offers
switching reliability throughout the operating
life (degree of protection IP 65 to DIN).
Tighten the screw.
Insert the wire.
Done.
Remove the screwdriver.
Versatility
of design for customized panels
The RAFIX 22QR system does not only have a particularly low
profile as compared to its predecessor and its competitors but
is also available in many different versions. Your design options
for your customized panels are nearly unlimited thanks to the
interchangeable front rings and lenses. In this way you can
achieve an attractive design while ensuring safe operation
of your equipment at the same time.
RAFIX 22QR components are available either with a
round or with a square collar. The square version can
be mounted in flush fitting rows just like a self-con-
tained pushbutton block. In this way, dirt cannot
accumulate between the individual pushbuttons.
Your panels will always remain attractive and
functionally reliable.
The new RAFIX 22QR control component
range meets all the technical requirements
and current standards for control gear.
All the components have been designed
from scratch, with a special view to
progressive design and ease of assembly.
As a result, we developed a state-of-
the-art product with an optimum cost /
benefit ratio.
The system is of modular design. Actuators,
contact blocks and lamp sockets can be
combined freely. This means that
you may implement modifications
of design or configuration even
at the last minute. An additional
positive effect is the reduction
of stockholding costs.
Sequence of assembly / disassembly
• Fix the actuator in the front panel
with the ring nut.
• Snap the individual elements
(a maximum three contact blocks or
two contact blocks together with a
lamp socket) in the coupling. You can
install them on any assembling axis.
• Insert the lamp or LED into the lamp
socket.
• Snap the coupling with the
contact blocks on to the actuator.
• Connect the cables.
• Disassembly is performed in
reverse order. To remove the
coupling from the actuator, the
latch lever must be pressed
(by hand or with a screwdriver).

Panel cut-out according to IEC 947
All actuators are provided with a locating
lug which may be removed using a
screwdriver for installation into mounting
holes if required.

All dimensions given in this
catalogue are in mm!
With a grid spacing of 30 mm horizontally
and 50 mm vertically, the collars of the
square actuators touch each other. We
recommend to use the same grid spacing
also for the round collar shapes (IEC 947).
