Lovato Double-Touch Actuators: Push Buttons With Precision and Safety
When you press a button, especially one that controls critical machinery or safety systems, you want feedback, reliability, and durability. Trimantec’s Lovato Electric Double-Touch Actuators are built for just that. These actuators come with two push buttons—either both flush or one flush and one extended. All are spring return, available in combinations like green/red, black/red, or white/black, and with symbols for whatever your application calls for.
What Makes These Push Button Actuators Stand Out
- Double-Touch Design: Two separate buttons let operators shut off or trigger features more clearly—useful in applications where start/stop needs to be distinct.
- Flush vs. Extended Push Buttons: Flush buttons sit level with the panel; extended ones give extra leverage when you need it. Both return automatically thanks to the spring mechanism.
- Spring Return Function: The button returns to neutral without staying depressed — safer in emergency, maintenance, and frequent-use scenarios.
- Multiple Color & Symbol Options: Choose colour schemes like green/red or white/black, and select symbols (I/O, arrows, etc.) that clearly indicate function.
Where These Actuators Are Used
These actuators are common in industrial settings where safety, clarity and tactile feedback matter:
- Operator control stations (e.g. start/stop panels)
- Hazardous environments where a mispress could cause malfunction or injury
- Heavy equipment control panels with frequent manual interaction
- Safety or reset stations where you want unmistakable buttons

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does “double-touch” mean in these actuators?
A: It means two separate buttons per actuator—often one for “On” and one for “Off,” or one flush / one extended—so operators have clear, unambiguous control actions.
Q: Are these buttons lighted or non-lighted?
A: Both options exist. If you need illumination for visibility or status indication, there are lighted models. Otherwise, non-lighted works fine for ambient-light panels.
Q: Can I mix flush and extended buttons in the same panel?
A: Yes. Many systems do. Extended buttons make frequent or safety-critical actions easier to locate and press, flush buttons help keep the panel clean and protected.
