EUCHNER RPS series safety rope pull switches are used as EMERGENCY-STOP devices with detent according to EN 418 wherever machines and installations cannot be secured with safety covers (e.g. on particularly long and extensive machine installations). The EMERGENCY-STOP function is triggered by a pre-tensioned rope pull system when the rope is pulled or the rope is severed. The type of triggering (pull or rope severing) can be seen on the rope pull switch on the position indicator. The EMERGENCY-STOP function can be triggered directly at the switch using a combined EMERGENCY-STOP/Reset button. Following rectification of the hazardous situation, the switch can be enabled again provided the rope pull system is suitably tensioned. Products & Services
Emergency stop switches are devices that users manipulate to initiate the complete shutdown of a machine, system, or process.
Safety sensor switches are placed in enclosures to prevent accidental contact with live electrical connections.
Safety switches open and close circuits, either manually with an operating mechanism or automatically with a fuse. Typically, safety switches are built into enclosures.
Machine safeguarding, presence sensing devices control machine operations and protect personnel by detecting the presence of objects that could interfere with or be harmed by machinery.
Wire rope and mechanical cable is wound from high-strength metal strands for structural, mechanical actuation and motion control applications.
