Cable-Pull Emergency Stop Switches
Emergency Stop Button,
Power and Tension Indicator
Immediately cut power by pulling a cable. These switches are often used to turn off production lines and material handling systems in an emergency. All have positive-force, snap-open contacts that open a circuit when actuated, even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. The contacts will remain open until you tension the cable and reset the switch.
Switches with a power indicator illuminate when the cable has been pulled.
Switches with a tension indicator let you visually confirm that tension is set correctly in the system.
Switches with an emergency stop button can be shut off either by their button or cable. They’re often installed where equipment may block access to the cable.
