30 mm Emergency Stop Panel-Mount Push-Button Switches
Immediately cut power with a single push. These switches are rated for protection from low-pressure streams of water and oil/coolant spraying. They have positive force contacts that will open a circuit when actuated even if a spring fails or the contacts stick. Switches include enough contact blocks to control the number of circuits listed.
Turn twist switches back on by twisting the button and pull switches by pulling it. Add an optional lockout on either kind to cover the button and prevent changes its position.
Note: Illuminated switches include a bulb. If wiring the switch and the bulb to the same circuit, the circuit voltage must not exceed bulb voltage.
Additional contact blocks (sold separately) can be added to control more circuits, or to replace the included contact block.

Enclosed Disconnect Switches
Cut power and keep it isolated to prevent equipment from starting up during inspection and maintenance. These switches are housed in a protective enclosure.
Switches with lockout secure in the off position with a padlock with a maximum shackle diameter of 5/16” (not included).
Add auxiliary contact blocks to send a signal or connect to another device, such as an alarm or indicating light.
Use additional power poles to control more than three circuits. Add neutral poles to open and close the neutral leg of a three phase system.

Hazardous Location Differential Pressure Switches for Air
With an explosionproof enclosure that meets NEMA 7 and 9 standards for hazardous locations, these switches were tested and verified by UL and CSA for use where explosive gas or dust may be present. Often used with ovens, dryers, and HVAC systems, they can indicate a filter is clogged or help maintain a certain air pressure. These switches turn equipment on and off, activate automated controls, or signal alarms when the differential pressure reaches your setpoint. They are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can be installed to turn one circuit from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).
In addition to being UL listed and CSA certified, these switches are CE marked and FM approved, so they also meet European safety standards. They also are IP and NEMA rated for use outdoors and protect against dust and splashing water.
When measuring pressure in ductwork, pair them with a static pressure probe.
