Prevent equipment from automatically restarting—these switches must be manually reset each time they're actuated. Pull the knob to reset. Positive-force contacts open the circuit when actuated, even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. These switches send a signal to your circuit when an object hits the actuator—for instance, a box on a conveyor runs into the switch, stopping the conveyor. They open and close circuits as fast as snap-acting switches, but they have a bigger actuator for large objects.

Rated IP67, these switches seal out water if they’re washed down or briefly submersed.

Replace the hinges on access doors or machine guards with these switches to keep your team safe from active machinery. Also known as interlock switches, they automatically shut off power to your machinery when the door or guard opens. They can be mounted on flat frames or aluminum T-slotted framing. These switches have positive-force, normally-closed contacts that will open a circuit when the switch is actuated, even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. They’re rated IP65 for protection from washdowns.

The convenient, modern alternative to mechanical safety switches. These RFID switches are easier to install, fit a wider range of access points, and can mount horizontally. Since they don't need a traditional key to actuate, they work even if the switch and actuator are slightly misaligned. Also known as interlock switches, they shut off power to equipment as soon as you open the barrier, which disconnects the RFID signal. These switches are often used with small machines. Find them anywhere from a CNC machine’s window to a packaging machine’s service panel. Mount the switch on the frame and the actuator on the barrier. Rated IP67 and IP69K, these switches are protected against temporary submersion and high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns.

Prevent accidental bumps or vibration from triggering these safety switches unnecessarily—a strong magnet maintains the RFID signal between the actuator and switch until it's intentionally opened. Also known as interlock switches, they automatically cut power when you open an access door, interrupting the signal, then restore power when the door is closed, and the switch and actuator meet. They're designed to mount on a frame and a door, gate, or window. Use them in many ways—from turning off a machine-operated saw when you open the protective window to powering down robotic arms when someone enters the partitioned area. The LED indicator shows that your switch is on and whether it’s actuated.
