Replace the hinges on access doors or machine guards with these switches to keep your team safe from active machinery.

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.

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.

Shorter and thinner than other safety limit switches, these are sized to fit tight spaces.

When a moving object contacts the actuator on these switches, they open or close a circuit. They have the rapid-closing action of a snap-acting switch, but with a larger actuator for large objects.

Start or stop equipment after a set number of rotations to avoid over-rotation.

Install these limit switches where changing a battery or routing wires might be difficult—they power themselves when a moving object contacts the actuator.

A sealed actuator prevents these switches from jamming, even when exposed to sand, mud, or dirt. With a slim design, you can stack them together or fit them in tight spaces.

Safely open or close a circuit near ignitable gases and dust—the housing on these switches seals in anything that could ignite flammable material.

Keep out dirt and moisture—the sealed housing on these switches is watertight and meets MIL-PRF-8805.

Minimize false triggers—these switches require 10 lbs. of actuation force in order to shut off machinery immediately.

Wire contacts to an alarm system to alert when doors or windows are opened.

Eliminate the need to calculate the sensing distance when using different metals—these switches sense all metal at the same distance. Also known as K=1 sensors.

These inductive proximity switches sense metallic objects each time they pass through the slot, even when they’re obscured by water, oil, dirt, or a surface finish. Use them to measure the speed of rotating equipment and to count or detect moving objects, such as sheet metal being fed into a stamping process.

Sense objects as they pass through the switch’s ring via tubing or a funnel. These switches are often used to monitor blockages, detect breaks in spooling wire, or count small metallic parts, such as screws, during the stamping process.

Use these switches to sense metallic objects in environments containing flammable gases and combustible dust. ATEX and IECEx certified to protect against explosion, they produce a low-current, low-voltage NAMUR signal, so they won’t ignite or create sparks.

Sense objects from farther away than with other DC proximity switches that have the same diameter.

Rotate the face on these switches five different directions for easy installation and positioning—they work with both AC and DC inputs.

Mount these flat inductive switches to a base or rail to remotely detect metallic objects in wet and dirty environments.

Detect objects as thin as a freshly sharpened pencil tip. These switches are best for tight spaces because they have a smaller light beam and can detect smaller objects than standard photoelectric switches.

Monitor a wide area around dangerous machinery. If a person or object gets too close, these scanners signal your relay or controller to either trigger a warning or shut down the machinery.

Set these switches to delay activation by up to fifteen seconds after detecting an object.

Rated IP69K, these switches can withstand high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns and temporary submersion.

A slim design and a light beam that’s angled upwards allow these switches to sense objects from between conveyor rollers.

About half the size of standard photoelectric switches, these switches are good for use in tight spaces. They detect objects moving at high speeds with a light beam.

Often used with programmable logic controllers (PLCs), these switches use DC input voltage and produce PNP or NPN signal output.

Switches accept both AC and DC input voltage.

Support flow and temperature control in your system with these intrinsically safe switches, which sense when a valve is open or closed in volatile areas. They are ATEX and IECEx certified to protect against explosion.

Mount these switches in panel cutouts where changing a battery or routing wires might be difficult—they power themselves when you push the button.

A quick push is all it takes to actuate these switches.

Save space on your panel by using one switch for several tasks. These switches actuate with the push of a button.

Use these switches where ignitable gas and dust may be present. Their contact blocks are UL listed for Class I, Division 2, Groups B, C, and D hazardous locations.

Rated NEC Classes I, II, and III, these switches have a housing that keeps fire and sparks in, so they won’t ignite gases, vapors, or dust. To save space on your panel, they can control multiple circuits.

Change the cover on these switches without replacing them entirely—they come with seven snap-on covers in different colors. The colors help you quickly identify switches without labels.

Actuate these switches with a quick push. A housing seals in anything that could ignite flammable material, so you can use them where ignitable gas and dust may be present.

Immediately cut power with a single push.

Actuate these switches with a quick push.

These aluminum switches are rated NEMA 4, NEMA 13, and IP66 for protection from washdowns and oil/coolant spraying.

A protective plastic enclosure resists dents, chips, and cracks, so you can install these switches outside of panels.

With a stainless steel enclosure, these switches are more durable than aluminum and plastic. They're rated NEMA 4X for protection from corrosion and washdowns.

Mount these switches in an outlet box. Also known as palm-button switches, they have a large button that makes them easy to use even while wearing gloves.

Snap these switches onto your T-slotted framing rails—no need to drill or disassemble your existing structure.

Save space in your setup—these switches double as handles on machines and equipment.

Safe to use near ignitable gases and dust, the housing on these switches seals in anything that could ignite flammable material. Yank the cable anywhere along your line to quickly cut power in emergencies.

Tug the hanging rope to actuate these switches.

These switches meet MIL-S-3950.

Choose an actuator and contact block to make your own 22 mm metal switch.

Choose an actuator and contact block to make your own 22 mm plastic switch.

The light touch of a finger turns circuits on and off without pressing down a contact. Program these switches to fit your application—control their color, pattern, and sensitivity.

Step on these switches for hands-free actuation in an area with frequent washdowns.

These switches are protected from corrosion, high-temperature and high-pressure washdowns, and oil/coolant spraying. Install them in 22 mm dia. cutouts.

Rated NEMA 4, 13, and IP66, these metal switches are protected from washdowns and oil/coolant spraying. Install them in 30 mm dia. cutouts.

Avoid accidental actuation—these switches won’t turn on or off until you grip and twist the lever. Install in a 16 mm dia. cutout.

The enclosure not only protects these switches, but also adds options for how you install them.

To prevent accidental actuation and limit access to sensitive equipment, these switches require a key to turn circuits on or off. The contact block and actuator are all one piece, so they won’t separate in high-vibration applications.

These 16 mm switches require a key to turn circuits on or off, limiting access to sensitive equipment.

Control cranes and other mobile machinery in dirty, outdoor, and wet environments without damaging your switch.

Also known as deadman switches, these switches make sure equipment only runs if you lightly press the hand grip. If you let go or a shock tightens your grip, they cut power.

Alternate between two batteries without interrupting power.

Cut power and keep it isolated to prevent equipment from starting up during inspection and maintenance. These switches are housed in a protective enclosure that resists denting, chipping, and cracking.

Small yet mighty, these switches are about as tall and wide as an index card yet durable enough to mount directly to a wall.

Keep power running while you access your enclosure. Unlike standard enclosure disconnect switches, which shut off power as you open your enclosure, these have an override function.

Trigger a light, alarm, or other device to signal your door is unlocked.
