The Banner K50ANT2GRC is a durable and versatile LED touch button engineered to deliver reliable operator input and clear visual feedback in harsh industrial environments. As part of Banner’s well-known K50 series, this model features capacitive touch activation, bright LED indication, and rugged protection ratings, making it an excellent choice for machine control, workstation guidance, and process monitoring.

Operating on a 12–30 V DC supply voltage, the K50ANT2GRC integrates seamlessly with standard industrial power systems. Its wide input range ensures dependable performance across varied applications, whether installed in new equipment or retrofitted into existing systems. The efficient LED and touch-based design consume minimal power, contributing to lower energy usage and reduced operating costs.

The capacitive touch interface provides intuitive and reliable activation with just a simple touch. Unlike mechanical push buttons, the K50ANT2GRC eliminates moving parts, resulting in reduced wear and longer operational life. It can even be activated while wearing most industrial gloves, ensuring dependable performance in environments where operators need protective gear. This functionality makes it both practical and user-friendly on busy production floors.

The button features multicolour LED indication (Green, Red, Clear) that provides immediate and highly visible feedback. This visual output helps operators quickly interpret machine status or process stages, reducing errors and improving workflow efficiency. The dome-style lens ensures light is evenly distributed and visible from wide angles, ensuring effective communication even in brightly lit environments or from a distance.

Built for harsh and hygienic environments, the K50ANT2GRC carries IP67 and IP69K ratings, which guarantee complete protection against dust ingress and resistance to high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns. These certifications, combined with rugged housing, make the unit ideal for industries such as food and beverage processing, packaging, pharmaceuticals, automotive, and material handling, where equipment is regularly exposed to moisture, cleaning solutions, and contaminants.

A 2 m pre-wired cable is included, offering flexibility and secure connectivity during installation. The pre-wired design eliminates the risk of loose connections while providing enough length for integration into machine panels or control cabinets.

Practical applications of the K50ANT2GRC include operator call systems, pick-to-light stations, workstation feedback, machine start/stop functions, and quality verification tasks. For example, it can signal when an assembly step is complete, allow operators to acknowledge machine prompts, or provide clear status feedback in lean manufacturing processes.

In summary, the Banner K50ANT2GRC combines capacitive touch activation, multicolour LED indication, rugged environmental protection, and installation-ready cabling into a reliable and efficient operator interface. Designed to withstand tough conditions while providing clear, glove-friendly interaction, it is an ideal solution for improving communication, safety, and efficiency across diverse industrial environments.
