  • Mechanical Door and Gate Sensing Switches Selection

    Mechanical door and gate sensing switches consist of an actuator mounted to a movable machine guard aligned with a switch mounted to the machine. The actuator must be inserted into the switch for the machine to operate.

    • Flexible actuator options for misalignment
    • Rotatable heads for flexible installation
    • Mechanically coded actuators minimize tampering
    • Up to 15N latching force to reduce downtime due to vibrating doors
