Why Choose the ABB P9MET4RL1 Illuminated Mushroom Pushbutton?
The ABB P9MET4RL1 is a robust red illuminated maintained mushroom pushbutton designed for industrial machinery, control panels and operator stations. Part of the ABB P9M modular metal pushbutton range, it combines a prominent 40 mm mushroom actuator with maintained operation for applications requiring a command to remain engaged until deliberately released.
This specific P9MET4RL1 configuration uses a pull-release mechanism. Once actuated, the red mushroom head remains latched in its operated position and is reset by pulling the actuator. The operator is suitable for illumination, providing both a clearly identifiable control surface and visual indication when used with compatible P9M illumination components.
Designed for a standard 22 mm mounting hole, the P9MET4RL1 includes the satin chrome metal body and nut together with the holder. Its IP66 front-side protection and robust modular construction support reliable service in demanding industrial machinery and automation environments.
Key Advantages
- Industrial red illuminated mushroom pushbutton for machinery and automation control.
- Large 40 mm mushroom actuator provides a prominent operating surface.
- Maintained latching action keeps the operator engaged after actuation.
- Pull-release reset provides deliberate mechanical release of the latched actuator.
- Suitable for illumination for combined operator control and visual indication.
- Robust satin chrome metal body and nut for demanding industrial environments.
- IP66 front-side protection supports reliable panel-mounted operation.
- Standard 22 mm mounting format simplifies integration into industrial operator panels.

Maintained mushroom pushbuttons remain mechanically latched after they are pressed, making them useful where an operator command must stay active until a deliberate reset is performed. The ABB P9MET4RL1 uses a pull-release mechanism, allowing the 40 mm red mushroom actuator to be reset by pulling it back to its normal position.
The P9MET4RL1 is an illuminated modular operator rather than a complete switching circuit by itself, allowing compatible P9M contact and illumination components to be selected for the required electrical function. Its 22 mm mounting format, metal construction and IP66 front protection make it suitable for robust industrial control-panel installations.
