Laser inscriptions

Inscription of actuating and signaling elements

Actuating and signaling elements in both plastic and metal versions can optionally be inscribed with a laser.

Example of laser inscription

The actuators of the pushbuttons, illuminated pushbuttons, twin pushbuttons, mushroom pushbuttons, illuminated mushroom pushbuttons, EMERGENCY STOP mushroom pushbuttons (without lock), the lenses of the indicator lights, and the acoustic signaling devices can all be inscribed.

Version

The default typeface used for inscriptions with text is Arial and the text is centered.

The font height for illuminated actuators is 2.5 mm, for non-illuminated actuators 3 mm.

Notes:

Selected pushbuttons and twin pushbuttons can be supplied as standard with inscribed letters or symbols.

Selector switches, key-operated switches and toggle switches can only be inscribed on the front ring in the design lines

• 22 mm, plastic, black and
• Flat, 30 mm, metal matte

(only one text line and the supplement Y19).

Ordering notes

To order, the inscribed actuating and signaling elements can be selected via the SIRIUS ACT configurator. An electronic order form is then generated.

Configurator, see www.siemens.com/sirius-act/configurator.

When ordering, "-Z" and one of the following order codes must be added to the article number of the actuator element or indicator light:

• Y10: Text in upper/lower case, always upper case for beginning of line, e.g. Z1=Lift Z2=Lower
• Y11: Text in upper case, e.g. Z1=LIFT Z2=LOWER
• Y12: Text in lower case, e.g. Z1=lift off Z2=lower off
• Y15: Text in upper/lower case, all words begin with upper case letters, e.g. Z1=Lift Off Z2=Lower Off
• Y13: Symbol with number according to ISO 7000 or IEC 60417
• Y19: Inscription of choice, text or symbol, can only be ordered via SIRIUS ACT configurator with a Configuration Identification Number (CIN)

When ordering, specify the required inscription without umlauts (ä, ö, ü) and without spaces after Z=, Z1=, etc. in addition to the article number and order code (see ordering examples 1 to 3).

In the case of symbols, specify the symbol No. and the standard (see ordering example 2).

In the case of multi-line inscriptions, the text must be assigned to the respective line, e.g. Z1=Lift, Z2=Lower (see ordering examples 1 and 3).

The SIRIUS ACT configurator must be used to select special inscriptions and symbols (see ordering example 4). In this case, a CIN (Configuration Identification Number) is generated for placement of future orders. It is then possible to place an order directly using the CIN and the SIRIUS ACT configurator (shopping cart in SiePortal) or via the standard ordering channels.

Standard ordering channels:

• Configurator: www.siemens.com/sirius-act/configurator
