Abstract
The invention relates to an electromechanical contactor, comprising a mobile push-piece which is connected to the contact support and can be accessed via a front face. A cover in the form of a plate is removably mounted on the front part (10a) of the housing (10), on fastening elements (17,19) provided for mounting an additional bloc. Said cover provides a means of masking the mobile push-piece (16) and has a transparent section (21) in front of the push-piece which prevents it from being activated manually without altering the ability of the device to display the state of the contactor.

- assembly shapes that cooperate with the catches by sliding parallel to a plane defined by the front portion;
- and a cover, wherein:
- the cover is removably attached to the front portion of the casing, for preventing actuation of the push-button, by being mounted on the front portion of the casing by the assembly shapes which cooperate with the catches by sliding parallel to a plane defined by the front portion.
