A closer look
Pressel available in 4 shapes
Vandal-resistant pushbutton in AISI 303 turned stainless steel compliant to EN 81-71 norm (Class 2).
This is the EDGE decoration with symbols, numbers and tactile Braille elegantly mounted on the faceplate. More available surrounds are described below on this product page.
Vandal-proof design
Its minimalist look should not be misleading: SHERMAN is a button designed for demanding, heavy-duty applications.
With its extremely robust body and proven activation mechanism, SHERMAN fully complies with EN81-71 Class 2 European guidelines to design lift components installed in environments prone to vandalism.
SHERMAN was successfully tested in our laboratories for impact, water entry and fire resistance.
EN81-70:2021+A1:2022
Great contrast, better visibility
The EN81-70:2021+A1:2022 norm requires that luminance contrast between adjacent surfaces be evaluated in numerical light reflectance value (LRV).
The tag black metal added around SHERMAN frontal mount button provides enhanced luminance contrast to the surrounding faceplate.
Italian flair in four shapes
The Sherman button comes in four charming shapes for all needs.
CLASSIC : This version has a dome-shaped pressel (convex) following the gentle curve of the outer ring and LED illuminated halo
DISC : This version has a flat pressel. Electrical and mechanical features are the same as the Sherman Classic
MOON: This version has a recessed pressel (concave). Same electrical and mechanical features as the Sherman Classic.
CALIFORNIA: Similar to the Sherman Disc, the Sherman California features a raised flat pressel to comply with the California code.
The appeal of solid and robust steel in four different pressel shapes or the effortless allure of brass colored PVD coating in all four shapes!

Illumination
Single light

Which electronics?
Like all our pushbuttons, the Sherman can be matched to different contact modules:
Screw terminals contact module
The screw terminals contact module is good for all types of modernizations. It requires a conventional wiring during installation.
It is suited for installations where no acoustic call acknowledgment is required.
Screw terminals contact module + call acoustic acknowledge module
JST connector contact module
Best solution for pre-wired fixtures allowing an easy and fast “plug&play” connection.
A JST cable must be added to connect the push-buttons.
