Emergency Stop Switches with Undervoltage Release

Front Mount 2 hole Mounting (IP54)

Emergency-stop switches with undervoltage release are equipped with a red/yellow lockout rotary handle for 3 padlocks. The regulations EN 60204 part 1 and DIN VDE 0113 part 1, paragraph 7.5, demand an undervoltage protection. This prevents restarting, at recovery voltage, after a main fails or falls below a set voltage level, preventing damage to the machine or the working process. In the case of a main failure, the undervoltage coil actuates a mechanism that switches the main switch to the off position. The trip-free nature of the mechanism ensures that the main switch cannot be turned on in the absence of coil voltage, even when the switch actuator is operated.

UL Listing is pending on the 32A and 50A emergency-stop switches and on the enclosed versions. The 25A switch is not UL Listed. Consult your GE Consumer & Industrial sales office for details.
