Twin-headed switches January 1st 2008 The latest developments from
Euchner include twin-headed
switches designed for use with two
adjacent machine access or cell
enclosure guards. Previously, it
would have been necessary to use
two separate switches for this
purpose, involving not only
additional material costs, but also
extra control circuitry and
monitoring facilities. The new
switches are double-headed
versions of the STP and SGP
safety switches, suitable for
demanding applications involving
high locking forces (up to 2500N).
Two switches are available
including the SGP Twin which is
supplied without guard locking.
Manual padlocking is available to
ensure the switch actuator cannot
be removed from the switch head.
The second switch is the STP Twin
which incorporates guard locking,
an independently operated
electronic shot-bolt mechanism. More articles from Euchner (UK) Limited: |
