Welcome to our range of Safety Switches for Automation; a range of products for controlling and monitoring guards opening and looking in three different applications – Heavy Duty, Medium Duty and Compact Locations.
Heavy Duty Safety Switches are for use where robustness and strength is paramount and for protecting heavy machinery in dusty, dirty environments. Heavy Duty Locking actuators have a head retention force of 10,000N and can be used in systems up to Performance Level e.
Medium Duty Safety Switches are for use with lightweight machinery. Medium Duty Locking actuators have a head retention force of 2,500N and can be used in systems up to Performance Level d.
Compact Switches are perfect for space limiting, short radius applications, up to Performance Level e. Compact Locking actuators have a head retention force of 8,000N and are high-coded to minimise system defeat.
