used to realise a simple, energy saving and efficient lighting control system. These devices
are mainly used in private houses, factory premises and commercial and public buildings as
well as in industrial plants. As a rule, latching relays controlled by means of impulse buttons
are installed where it is necessary for lighting to be operated from at least three different
places. Each time a command is initiated (by means of an impulse button), an electrical

activated. That short pulse to the coil leads to the mechanical latch of the internal main
contacts. The internal switching mechanism enables us to achieve a safe and reliable
interlock (in the same way as a ballpoint pen). Each pulse that is sent to the magnetic coil
system switches the device to its previous position where it is held mechanically until the
next control pulse is received. The devices are designed for rated currents 16 and 32A.
Through the combinable accessories the main modules can be used in nearly all market
