    The wide surface of these switches makes them easy to press on and off, even if your hands are full and you need to use an elbow. They’re often used as power switches on electronic devices and control panels.
    Note: Illuminated switches include a bulb. If wiring the switch and the bulb to the same circuit, the circuit voltage must not exceed the bulb voltage.
    Illuminated—Illuminated switches are easy to see in dim and dark areas. They come in red and green, so you can color code your set up.
    For 13/16" Diameter Panel Cutouts—Switches for a 13/16” dia. panel cutout are round, so you can use a drill bit or knockout to install them instead of cutting a rectangular hole.
    On-On—Switches with an on-on position designation alternate power between sets of terminals.

    Cable-Pull-Actuator Emergency Stop Switches with Restart Switch

    Tug the cable to stop your line, then follow it back to the restart switch. Typically separate devices, the stop and reset controls are in one compact unit. As a secondary shutdown option, a push-button stop switch is also built in. A secondary push-button stop switch ensures you can halt equipment immediately, even when the cable is out of reach. Because they let you control circuits from a distance with a quick tug, these cable-pull stop switches are often used to turn off production lines and material handling systems. To notify your team on the floor that you’ve stopped equipment, a power indicator lights up when you pull the cable.
    Use the tension indicator to confirm that cable is set up correctly. Circuits remain open until you tension the cable and hit the restart button. Cable is not included.

    Two-direction switches support twice the total cable distance of one-direction switches. With pulls on each side, you can route cable in two opposite directions. These switches are often placed at the midpoint of conveyors and other long runs of equipment.

    Bracket Kits

    Halt machinery in an instant with these tablet holders. They equip your tablet with safety switches that meet IEC and EN standards, so you can safely move around your equipment while teaching robots or monitoring production lines and conveyor systems.
    The emergency stop switch on the front of the holder illuminates when the switch is enabled. There is also a deadman switch on the back of the holder that controls machinery when you lightly press and hold it in the middle position. If the switch is released or pressed down all the way, it stops the machine.
    Pivot the handle to hold a tablet vertically or horizontally, while keeping the switches in a comfortable position for either hand. The adjustable mounting bracket secures a variety of tablet sizes. Connect your tablet to the USB port to charge during use.
    Tablet Holder Bracket Kits—Tablet holder bracket kits enlarge the bracket to hold tablets with thick covers and protectors.
