EAO: Sealed Series 46 Emergency Stop Switches Meet Necessary Global Requirements of Harsh, Industrial Applications

October 15, 2024

EAO has recently introduced a new push-pull emergency stop as part of its extensive Series 46 lineup.

The primary objective of Series 46 emergency stop switches is to enhance user safety while protecting machinery, equipment, and control systems from potential harm during operational failures.

These modular control devices feature a 40mm mushroom-style actuator designed for a standard 22.3mm mounting panel cut-out. The easily identifiable red and yellow colors enhance visibility and recognition during emergencies, while compliance with IEC EN60947-1, IEC EN60947-5-1, IEC EN60947-5-5, and EN ISO 13850 ensures dependable protection when needed. With forced opening contacts and fool-proof characteristics, these units are perfectly suited for the demanding and challenging conditions typically encountered in industrial settings. 

Series 46 emergency stop switches feature a modular design allowing straightforward customization to meet the user’s specific application needs. This benefit facilitates quick installation and maintenance, ultimately conserving time and resources. Their maximum AC switching voltage is 500V AC with a maximum switching current of 10A per AC15. Their maximum DC rating is 240V DC with a maximum DC current of 5A according to DC13.

This versatile range of industrial switches is perfect for general-purpose controls in machinery and industrial automation applications, providing reliable and durable performance.

Advantages:

  • Cost-effective solution for general switching applications
  • Standard IP65 sealing with IK03 impact resistance
  • Silver and gold-plated silver contacts
  • Modular switches for easy assembly and installation 
  • Industry standard 22.3mm
  • Screw or ring cable lug screw terminals
