Cable-operated switches are used for monitoring or for EMERGENCY-STOP facilities on particular endangered system sections.
The AS-Interface cable-operated switches are implementable up to Category 4 to EN 954-1.
As the effective range of a cable operated switch is limited by the length of the cord, large systems can also be protected.
Device versions are available with separate actuators or with tumblers and with plastic-clad or metal enclosures.
