Interlock SwitchesSAfety switchesCarlo Gavazzi offers a complete range of safety switches.Cable safety switches are essential for the continuous control of a long line of machines or on conveyor systems. They guarantee the safety of the operator, who is able to immediately stop machinery by pulling on the wire.Key type switches are used to prevent machinery from being started without the key in place. Once the key is inserted, the machinery may be started.Hinge type switches operate when the arm has been moved a certain number of degrees. They are frequently used to stop machinery in the event a door or...[ Read More ]

Interlock Switchesmagnetic sensorsCarlo Gavazzi offers a comprehensive range of magnetic sensors for use in proximity detection applications. As their name suggests, they used in conjunction with an external magnet - when the sensor approaches the magnet, the output from the sensor will change state.Typically these sensors will have a longer sensing distance than typical proximity sensors. As well, the output will be a mechanical contact.There are a wide variety of styles available including rectangular, cylindrical, and slotted. As well, special coded magnets and sensors are available for use in safety applications. Magnetic sensors are frequently used on elevators and lifts,...[ Read More ]

SAFETY MATS Safety Mats are used for intrusion detection into hazardous areas around power presses, machinery and robots. Detection results in a stop command being sent to machinery or robot controls. The presence of operators in hazardous areas not visible from the equipment controls location is also detected, in this case pressure sensitive safety mats prevent restart of the equipment. Safety mat systems consist of the mat itself and a mat controller to interface with the machine controls Bircher SafeTec safety mats are a pressure sensitive design. Copper clad epoxy plates are encapsulated in a black polyurethane compound. Copper, the...[ Read More ]
