Sunnyvale, CA, December 10, 2010 – With a compact and ergonomic design that meets all major robotics industry requirements, HE6B enabling switches have it all.
HE6B is ergonomically designed to work where human interaction is required to turn on a machine or robot arm while the user is in a potentially dangerous area. This 3-position enabling switch not only turns a machine on when pressed, but also turns machines off when over pressed or squeezed, as long as the switch is installed correctly in an adequate safety circuit. Plus two contacts are provided so that even if one contact fails, the other can disable machine operation.
Functionality meets all stringent requirements of IEC standard 60947-5-8 for this class of products, while a waterproof rubber boot, available in yellow or black, provides IP65 protection.
