The Siemens 3SB5801-7AM3 enclosure for pushbutton is a compact industrial operator-control solution designed for machinery and automation applications requiring a dedicated STOP command. It features a plastic enclosure with a grey top part, one command position and an integrated red 40 mm mushroom pushbutton with a maintained, turn-to-release operating mechanism.
The large red mushroom actuator provides a clearly identifiable control interface, while the maintained turn-to-release design helps prevent the STOP command from being reset accidentally. This makes the enclosure suitable for machine-control applications where a deliberate operator action is required to release the stop command.
The Siemens 3SB5801-7AM3 STOP pushbutton enclosure provides a dedicated local control point for stopping machinery. Its single-position configuration makes it useful for applications where one clearly identifiable STOP command is required close to the machine or operating area.
The red 40 mm mushroom pushbutton has a large actuator surface that can be quickly located and operated. Its distinctive shape and red colour help differentiate the STOP control from other operator devices.
Unlike a momentary pushbutton, the maintained turn-to-release mechanism keeps the mushroom button in its actuated position after operation. To release the button, the operator must deliberately turn it, helping avoid unintended reset of the STOP command.
One of the important characteristics of the 3SB5801-7AM3 is its maintained turn-to-release operation.
When the red mushroom pushbutton is actuated, it remains in the operated position. It does not simply return to its original position when the operator removes their hand. The operator must intentionally turn the pushbutton to release it.
This operating principle can be useful in machine-control arrangements where the stop command needs to remain visibly and physically engaged until the operator deliberately resets it.
The exact electrical behaviour and safety function depend on how the pushbutton is integrated into the complete machine-control circuit.
Important: A red maintained mushroom pushbutton should not automatically be treated as an emergency-stop device. Whether it is suitable for an emergency-stop function depends on the complete device configuration, machine risk assessment, safety circuit and applicable standards.
The plastic construction provides a lightweight and practical housing for the operator control. The grey top part gives the enclosure a clean industrial appearance and allows it to integrate with different types of machinery and automation equipment.
The enclosure provides a dedicated location for the 22 mm round operator device, keeping the STOP control organized and easily accessible.
Its compact single-position design is particularly useful where space is limited or where a machine requires one dedicated local operator command.
The integrated red 40 mm mushroom actuator provides a large and easily recognizable control surface. The mushroom shape makes it visually different from standard flat pushbuttons, helping operators identify the STOP function quickly.
The maintained design means that after activation, the button stays actuated until it is deliberately turned to release. This can provide a clear physical indication that the STOP command has been activated.
For machine builders, this type of operator control can be incorporated into suitable control circuits where a maintained stop command is required.
The 3SB5801-7AM3 Siemens maintained STOP pushbutton enclosure can be considered for various industrial applications, including:
It is particularly suitable for applications where a dedicated STOP control with deliberate turn-to-release operation is required.
The Siemens 3SB5801-7AM3 plastic STOP enclosure is suitable for OEM machine builders, panel builders, system integrators and industrial maintenance professionals.
For new machinery, it can be incorporated into a local operator station where a maintained STOP command is required. For maintenance and replacement applications, it can also be considered where a compatible Siemens 3SB5 operator arrangement is needed.
Before installation, users should verify the complete electrical control circuit, mounting arrangement and compatibility of the operator device with the machine. Any safety-related STOP function should be engineered according to the machine's risk assessment and applicable requirements.

Siemens 3SB5801-7AM3 is a plastic enclosure with one integrated red 40 mm mushroom pushbutton featuring a maintained turn-to-release mechanism.
It includes a red 40 mm mushroom pushbutton designed for the STOP function.
After the pushbutton is actuated, it remains in the operated position until the operator deliberately turns it to release.
The enclosure provides one command position.
It features a plastic construction with a grey top part.
The enclosure is designed around the 22 mm round pushbutton format, with a 40 mm mushroom actuator.
It can be used in production machines, conveyors, packaging equipment, machine tools, material-handling systems and industrial automation applications.
It requires a deliberate turning action to release the pushbutton, helping prevent accidental resetting of the STOP command.
No. A red maintained mushroom pushbutton is not automatically an emergency-stop device. Suitability for emergency-stop applications depends on the complete safety design, device configuration and applicable requirements.
