The next generation in 22mm XW emergency stop switches features a smooth, ridgeless button which is not only attractive, but also prevents dust build-up and assures comfortable operation, reducing user fatigue and stress. This design enables quick and easy cleaning, ideal for food and beverage applications, as well as food processing equipment. Plus, each operator features both push-turn and push-pull action.
With the XW series emergency stop switches, you will find many standard and innovative safety features, which make them the safest available today. The potential energy level of the latched status is lower than that of the normal status. This is known as a Reverse Energy Structure. It means that if the switch is damaged, the NC contacts will turn off, thus stopping the machine. Plus, when the contact block is detached from the operator, the NC contact opens (OFF). And of course, all XW switches feature positive opening contacts.
In addition, a bright-green mechanical indicator makes it easy to instantly check latched or normal status from a distance! The green indicator is visible when NC contacts are closed, and is hidden when the switch is actuated.
XW E-stops comply with international safety standards and are UL, c-UL listed, TUV recognized, and EN and CCC compliant. Illuminated models are also available.
