Features/Applications

The following “taut cable” style switch has 2 NO and 2 NC contacts with Positive Break and Positive Transfer features making it particularly competent for use in Emergency Stop applications as well as for ordinary circuit control. For easy installation this switch is pre-wired with a 12-pin connector and red 24 volt indicator light.

The housing is made from high quality die-cast aluminum and powder coated painted yellow. Set-up position is easily attained without removal of the cover. Cable is stretched tightly until shaft end is flush with indicator hub end. Switch will trip and latch if the cable breaks, comes loose or is pulled. Blue booted reset button is pushed to reset contacts back to their normal operating configuration. The mounting pattern coincides with other standard REES cable operated switches and additional mounting holes are provided to match competitive devices.

  • Designed to reduce “nuisance tripping” often associated with taut cable switches
  • Gold plated contacts eliminate high resistance tarnishing
  • Tamper resistant screws for cover attachment
  • Nema 12/13, IP 65                                                                      

There are three ½ “NPT conduit openings. The maximum cable recommended cable length is 200 feet with a maximum interval support of 10 feet.

The mechanical life of the switch is 250,000 operations.

Typically found on process applications such as conveyors, transfer machines or assembly lines within the automotive, machine tool, foundry and pharmaceutical industries this switch provides a constant access for emergency or normal stopping.

The rugged construction and long term reliability makes this cable pull switch well suited to function within various environments.
