MMTC PBC-2 NEMA 1 Two Button Interior Flush Mount Control Station Product Details
The MMTC PBC-2 provides two momentary push-button commands in a flush-mount interior control station. In typical door and gate control work, a two-button station is used when the operator has separate OPEN and CLOSE inputs and the customer does not need a STOP button at that specific station. The PBC-2 mounts in a protected interior wall location and is better suited for finished areas than a surface-mounted metal box. It is part of the same basic PBC interior flush-mount family as PBC-1 and PBC-3, but the command layout is different. Using the wrong button count can leave a needed command unavailable or create wiring confusion, so the old station and operator terminals should be checked before ordering.
Compatible With
May be used with commercial overhead door operators, rolling steel door operators, industrial door controls, dock door controls, select gate operators, barrier arm operators, and access control systems that accept low-voltage dry-contact push-button commands that accept separate OPEN and CLOSE dry-contact inputs from an interior flush-mount station. Common applications include interior controls for commercial overhead doors, rolling doors, loading area doors, service counters, secure rooms, and select gate operator controls. Related models include PBC-1, PBC-3, PBS-2, 2BF, 2BX, and 2EBX, but these differ by mount style, enclosure rating, and contact layout.

Technician Note
A two-button station is not a full three-button open-close-stop station. If the operator or code requires a local stop button, review a three-button model before ordering.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the station requires two buttons.
- Verify the operator uses separate OPEN and CLOSE terminals.
- Check that no STOP button is required at this station.
- Confirm the installation is indoor/protected NEMA 1.
- Measure the flush box and faceplate space.
Professional Advisory
Do not remove a required stop control or safety control when changing station styles. Control stations should be wired according to the operator manual and tested after installation.
