Latch key safety limit switches
Description
Safety limit switches with small latch (key), made of
berglass reinforced UL-V0 thermoplastic material,
offer double insulation and a degree of protection
IP65. They are equipped with 1 N.C. + 1 N.O. or
2 N.C. contact blocks with dependent action and
positive opening operation of the "N.C." contact(s).
Applications
Easy to use, the limit switches with small latch
(key) offer specic qualities:
• Visible operation.
• Capability for strong current switching (conventional thermal current 10 A).
• Opening guaranteed of the "N.C." contact(s)
when the small latch is withdrawn from the limit
switch.
• Contact blocks with dependent action and positive opening operation of the "N.C." normally
closed contact(s) (symbol ).
• Electrically separated contacts (Zb shape).
• Precision on operation positions (consistency).
• Immunity to electromagnetic disturbances.
limit switches
Safety
These specic features make the limit switches
ideal for monitoring and protection of industrial
machines without inertia in which downtime is
less than access time to the dangerous area. Use
on sliding or pivoting protectors (covers, cases,
doors, grids, etc.).
• They contribute to protection of operators
working on dangerous machines, by opening
the control circuit. Withdrawal of the small latch
(key) by opening the mobile protector causes
immediate stopping of the machine drive.
• Associated with other standard limit switches
and safety switching devices, they produce
automatic control circuits meeting standard EN
954-1.
• They comply with the requirements of European
Directives (Low Voltage, Machines and Electromagnetic Compatibility) and are conform to
European and international standards.
