Stop switch

Switches, Relays & Keypads
EAO’s new Series 51 stop switch utilises a monoblock design with a built-in contact block to achieve a mounting depth of less than 19 mm.
This not only reduces the behind-panel depth, but also protects it from damage caused by heavy-handed use during an emergency shutdown or panic situation. The design has been tested beyond 100 000 actuations.
The universal stop switch can be adapted to almost any type of application, but is particularly suitable for handheld remote controls, narrow control panels and newer electronic applications where behind-panel space is restricted. The front is dust and watertight to IP65, making it suitable for use in dirty environments where there is a risk of spraying water. EAO offers a protective shroud to help prevent unintentional use and damage from heavy falling objects.
Series 51 is compatible with operating voltages from 10 A/100 V up to 250 V/5 A, and there is a choice of connections including solder/plug-in, solder or universal (plug-in, solder, PCB). The single piece design is easier and less time consuming to mount than switches with separate contact blocks.
