Add these switches to your abrasive blasting hose to prevent it from spraying if the operator loses control. Also known as deadman switches, they prevent injuries and reduce wasted material by springing back to the off position when the operator lets go. All are for use with blasting systems that allow remote control blasting. Attach to your hose with hose clamps.

Receive signals from safety monitoring relays or controllers to switch devices off and on because of a system failure. Also known as force-guided or mechanically linked contacts, the interlocking opposing contacts on these relays cannot be open or closed at the same time. To keep your system from receiving false switching signals, the interlocking opposing contact must remain open even if a contact welds closed.

IP20 rated, they have recessed terminals that prevent fingers and other objects from touching live circuits. These relays have been tested to safety standards that can help you achieve your system's PL (performance level) and SIL (safety integrity level). Choose a relay with a PL and SIL rating to meet the needs of your system. Higher ratings indicate greater safety protection. As your system becomes more complex, you generally require a higher safety protection level. Mount them to 35mm DIN rail (also known as DIN 3 Rail).

To protect equipment and personnel, these controllers shut down your machine when it gets too hot. Reset them manually to turn your machine on again. They're often used as a fail-safe system and for triggering alarms.

Set the actuation point and adjust other settings with the keypad. To read the temperature, these controllers use a highly sensitive thermocouple probe (sold separately). They have one or two mechanical relays that actuate circuits directly. Mount them into instrumentation panels with DIN cutouts.

Built into an enclosure, these temperature controllers are protected when sitting on your workbench. Ideal in systems with rapid, unpredictable, or complex temperature changes, they turn heating equipment on and off using a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control algorithm to make fine adjustments, giving you the most precise and stable temperature control. All work similarly to proportional controllers but gather more variables to calculate the most effective way to return to the target temperature and avoid overshooting it. They also have fuzzy logic to learn your system's behavior and compensate as needed. Use the autotuning function to have the controller cycle and identify the ideal PID variables for your system. These controllers read temperature with a highly sensitive thermocouple probe in critical process applications. Since they reset automatically, they switch off and on again as the temperature fluctuates. Use the keypad to adjust the actuation point, reset point, and other settings.

The controllers have mechanical relay outputs that actuate circuits directly. All are single pole, single throw (SPST-NO) relays and turn one circuit from off to on (normally open).
