Product Description
Benefits & Applications
The Eaton M22-CKC10 is a dual auxiliary contact block designed for use with Eaton’s M22 modular pushbuttons, selector switches, and operator devices. This compact module provides a combined 1 Normally Closed (1NC) and 1 Normally Open (1NO) contact in a stacked configuration, making it ideal for applications that require both “stop” and “start” or “disable” and “enable” signaling within a single operator station.
Engineered for high reliability and long mechanical life, the M22-CKC10 is commonly used in industrial control panels, PLC input circuits, automation systems, and OEM equipment. Its snap-on mounting system allows fast, secure installation without tools, even in tight or vibration-prone control cabinets.
Typical Applications
- Start/stop and enable/disable control logic
- Interlock circuits and safety monitoring
- PLC input and feedback signaling
- Motor control and reversing logic
- OEM machinery and industrial control panel construction
Technical Advantages
- Dual auxiliary configuration: 1NC + 1NO
- Compact stacked block for space-efficient panel layouts
- Tool-free snap-on design for quick installation
- High electrical reliability for low-voltage and PLC circuits
- Designed for long mechanical endurance in industrial environments
- Fully modular and stackable with other M22 series auxiliary blocks
Compatibility Notes
The M22-CKC10 belongs to Eaton’s M22 modular operator platform and mounts directly to:
- M22 pushbuttons (illuminated and non-illuminated)
- M22 selector and key switches
- M22 emergency stop (E-stop) operators
- M22 mounting adapters and modular expansion bases
If your control circuit requires both NO and NC auxiliary contacts in a single, compact block for interlock, safety, or feedback logic, the M22-CKC10 is the correct Eaton OEM accessory.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What contact configuration does the M22-CKC10 provide?
The M22-CKC10 provides 1 Normally Closed (1NC) and 1 Normally Open (1NO) auxiliary contact in a stacked configuration.
Q: What devices is the M22-CKC10 compatible with?
It snaps onto all Eaton M22 operators, including pushbuttons, selector switches, key switches, and E-stops.
Q: Can the M22-CKC10 be used for PLC input circuits?
Yes, both contacts offer clean, reliable switching suitable for PLC digital inputs and low-voltage control systems.
Q: What is the difference between M22-CKC10 and M22-KC10?
Both provide 1NO + 1NC, but the CKC10 uses a more compact stacked design optimized for tighter control panels. The KC10 is a slightly different physical configuration. Electrical function is equivalent.
Q: Can I stack the M22-CKC10 with other auxiliary contact blocks?
Yes. The M22 modular system allows stacking multiple NO/NC modules to build advanced multi-stage control logic.
