Telemecanique offers a comprehensive range of safety switches designed to enhance machine and personnel safety in industrial environments. Here's an overview of the various types of safety switches available:
Types of Telemecanique Safety Switches:
- Limit Switches:
- XCS Series:
These are general-purpose safety limit switches designed to monitor the position of machine guards, doors, and other movable parts. They come in various actuator types such as plunger, roller lever, and adjustable rod, and are known for their robust construction and high reliability.
- Pull Switches:
- XY2 Series:
Pull switches are used for emergency stop applications where immediate action is required. They are designed with a pull cord that activates the switch when pulled, ensuring quick shutdown of machinery in case of emergency.
- Interlock Switches:
- XCSLF Series:
Interlock switches are used to prevent unauthorized access to hazardous areas or to ensure that machinery can only operate when certain conditions are met (such as doors being closed). They typically feature key-operated or solenoid locking mechanisms for added security.
- Coded Magnets:
- XCSMP Series:
Coded magnets are used with safety switches to provide secure and reliable position detection. They ensure that only specific magnetic fields are detected, offering enhanced security and resistance to tampering.
Key Features Across Telemecanique Safety Switches:
- High Safety Standards:
Compliant with international safety standards such as ISO 13849-1, IEC 60947-5-1, and EN 1088.
