MP8 Switch Motor

The MP8 is similar to our best-selling MP4 but is optimized for push button operation and its controls are compatible with most twin coil designs. You don't need to provide a continuous ground: the MP8 will start moving with a 100ms touch or pulse and moves to the end of travel. This makes the MP8 ideal for applications where a motor is controlled from two or more locations: multiple "move to the normal position" and "move to the reversed position" push buttons can be wired in parallel. There is no toggle switch to suggest a switch position, so if the switch is later operated from another position there is no confusion. The Aux 2 contact provides a ground indicating the Normal or Reversed state of the motor and it can support as many LED indicators as required. This also makes the MP8 ideal for diode matrix applications as a group of motors on a route can be operate with a single push button.

The MP8 is shares mechanical dimensions and characteristics of the MP4 and DP4.
