A22-FY-10M
ActiveA22 Yellow Flush Push Button (1NO)
Yellow flush momentary push button, Omron A22 series. 22mm cutout, IP65, with 1NO contact. Screw terminals.
Common Applications
Yellow push button from the Omron A22 series used for intervention functions — fault reset, alarm acknowledgement, and jam-clear operations per IEC 60204-1 color standards. Found on Omron-controlled packaging machines, electronics assembly lines, and food processing equipment built by Japanese and Asian machine builders. The 1NO contact is typically wired to an Omron CJ/NJ PLC input for fault-reset logic. Note the narrower operating temperature range (-10 to 55 degrees C) compared to European brands — suitable for indoor factory environments but not cold storage. Pairs with the A22-FG-10M (green) and A22-FR-01M (red).

Installation Quick Reference
Panel cutout: 22mm. Insert from the front of the panel, secure with mounting nut from behind (tighten to 2-3 Nm).
Contact block: Snap or screw the contact block onto the rear of the button body. Ensure the contact block orientation matches the wiring diagram — NO terminals are usually marked.
Wiring: Use 0.5-2.5mm² stranded wire with ferrules. Tighten screw terminals to 0.8 Nm. Test the button function before energizing the circuit.
Wiring Diagram
Troubleshooting
Button doesn't respond when pressed
Check the contact block first — it's the most common failure point. Test continuity across the NO or NC terminals with a multimeter. If no click is felt, the return spring in the head may be broken.
Works intermittently
Contact block contacts are pitted or burned. Replace the contact block — don't try to file the contacts. Check if the rated cycle count has been exceeded.
Button feels mushy or doesn't click
The spring return mechanism in the button head is worn. Replace the head. The contact block can usually be reused if it tests OK.
