Authorised distributor Anglia Components is stocking and offering free samples of EAO’s series 61 compact emergency stop switch.

The switches are especially suited for handheld control units, or can be mounted, within easy reach or directly onto a machine.

The switch reliably protects people and equipment against injury and damage.

Control panel design for equipment, devices and machinery provides many challenges to manufacturers. They need to produce easy to use, intuitive controls that are both compact and also capable of withstanding harsh industrial use.

Depending on the application, they may need to protect the controls from attack by chemicals, from dirt ingress or cleaning by high-pressure water jets.

These switches satisfy the needs of use, through rigorous material selection and a robust build quality that meets IP69K, the highest degree of protection against dirt and dust ingress.

The product complies with the latest international standards. The robust mono-block design has a fool proof, trigger action mechanism to break the electrical contacts, and a green indication ring to show whether the switch is actuated.

Here, the mechanically decoupled triggering of the switching elements should be highlighted in particular. The optional high brightness central LED makes the product clearly visible, even in low light levels.

Each switch can have up to three individual normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) switch contacts, a 27 mm or 40 mm diameter mushroom head and optional 24VDC LED illumination - all within a compact 21.2 mm back panel depth.
