EAO’s new Series 04 Failsafe
Emergency-Stop Switching Element
is designed to improve safety for
machinery operators.

The ‘failsafe’ element is selfmonitoring
and will detect if the stop
switch actuator becomes
disconnected by accidental damage,
negligent assembly
or misuse. If there’s
any defect, the
failsafe contact
opens and the
machinery will
behave like in a
normal emergency
shutdown routine.

It will fit any
Series 04 emergency-stop or stop
switch and is easily retrofitted by
snapping on the new element. Three
types of connection are possible:
push-in terminals (PIT) with cage
clamps, or screw and plug-in
terminals.

As with all EAO products, this
device offers a long mechanical life
of at least 50,000 operations.
