Rope pull switches: For more safety on the production line
According to the Machinery Directive (from 2027 Machinery Ordinance), machines and systems must be equipped with at least one emergency stop switch that can stop a dangerous process at any time. This is to prevent damage to people, but also to the machine or material. This can be achieved easily and cost-effectively with the aid of a rope pull switch, as only one switch and one rope are required, with which a large area can be secured at the same time.
A pull-wire switch is - as the name suggests - a switch that is operated by pulling on a wire. The advantages are easy to see.
Thanks to long span lengths of up to 75 meters, a large area can be secured with just one rope pull switch. At the same time, the corresponding action can be triggered along the entire length. This means, for example, that the employee does not have to search for and actuate the next emergency stop switch to stop the machine.
Pulling the cable of the switch moves the switching element in the housing and opens or closes the circuit accordingly.
The associated control unit in turn processes this signal and executes the associated command. A classic example of this is bringing the machine to a standstill in emergency situations. In these cases, the rope pull switches have an integrated emergency stop.
The safety rope pull switches developed and manufactured by BERNSTEIN AG are designed and approved in accordance with the IEC 947-5-5, IEC 60947-5-5 and ISO 13850 standards.
Rope pull switches
With safety function
These switches are equipped with an emergency stop switching device that can be triggered along the entire length by pulling the rope in any direction.
After actuation or cable breakage, the switching device locksautomatically and can only be reset to the initial position by the reset device on the device.
Rope pull switches
Standard variants
Due to normative requirements, standard rope pull switches can only be used as control devices. They are typically used for opening or closing gates, starting machines or giving commands in the production process.
BERNSTEIN standard pull-wire switches are available in metal and insulated enclosures and are actuated manually by pulling on the attached wire.
