Safety Hinge Switches


S20 - Safety Switch
CE IMQ cUL US listed CCC

S400 series Safety Hinge Switches are used for position monitoring of hard guards that can rotate (e.g. protective hoods) with a monitoring switch (without guard interlocking) integrated into the hinge.

The S400 Safety Hinge Switches unite the Safety Switch and door hinge functions in one component. This Safety Switch is used with machines with small stopping times, depending on the distance to the point of operation. As external actuators are not required with this Switch, it can also be used problem-free in environments with high dust concentration levels or with heavy particle loads.

The Switch is extremely compact, but robust at the same time, and therefore predestined for numerous applications. It also boasts a simple switching angle alignment. If, for example, doors are to be moved or aligned later on, realignment is no problem. The covered screws of the S400 Safety Hinge Switch ensure that it is highly tamperproof.
