These emergency stop trip wire switches are designed to reduce the risk of injury to persons and damage either to machines or work in progress. They can be tripped by a single human action when a normal emergency stop function is not available and will also trip in the event of the trip wire breaking.
Switches incorporate positive opening operation contacts, the tripping of the switch being made with positive action The switch latches in the tripped position (N/C safety contact(s) open). The function of the N/O contact is purely for signalling Incorporates a reset button, which re-closes the safety contact(s), restarting of the machine must only be achieved by manual operation of a control device within the machine start circuit, remote to the trip wire switch Recommended distance between cable supports is 15m (for model XY2-CB30 a distance of 20m is recommended) The XY2 CE1A296 comes with a pilot light (direct supply)
Note
The XY2 CB switch must not be used if the installation requires that the trip wire be angled but the XY2 CE switch can. In this case, the total sum of the angles through which the trip wire bends must not exceed 180°.
