The IFM KT5110 is a capacitive illuminated pushbutton designed for contactless machine operation. It uses static capacitive sensing and provides a PNP normally-open output. The sensor operates from 12–30 V DC and supports a 200 mA continuous switching current. Its compact Ø29 × 31 mm housing is designed for installation through a 22.5 mm panel hole. IP65, IP67 and IP69K front protection provides reliable operation in industrial environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The KT5110 performs switching without mechanical pressure or moving contacts. Static capacitive sensing provides wear-free and maintenance-free operation. The pushbutton is designed for direct integration into machine operator panels. Its compact form factor allows installation where conventional switches may require more space. This makes it suitable for modern industrial control interfaces.
The illuminated design provides visual feedback for machine operators. The active pushbutton surface is designed for easy touch activation. The device can be used with different operator-interface labels or symbols. Visual indication helps distinguish the button state during machine operation. This makes the KT5110 suitable for start, stop and control-panel functions.
The KT5110 operates from 12–30 V DC and consumes approximately 30 mA. Its PNP normally-open output supports 200 mA continuous current. Short-circuit and overload protection are integrated into the switching output. A maximum 500 ms power-on delay and approximately 35 ms response time are specified. These characteristics support direct PLC and control-system integration.

The KT5110 is designed for easy installation in a panel using a Ø22.5 mm mounting hole. Its compact Ø29 mm body provides a low-profile operator interface. The static sensing technology avoids mechanical actuator wear. Cable connection allows direct machine wiring. This makes the device practical for repeated operator interaction.
The pushbutton operates across an ambient temperature range of -40 to 85 °C. IP65, IP67 and IP69K protection are specified for the sensor and front area. The PA housing provides a robust industrial construction. Reverse-polarity protection helps protect the electronics during installation. These characteristics support dependable use on factory-machine control panels.
