New
position and safety switches, KB and KM series, dimensions to EN
50047
LOVATO Electric presents their
new series of position and safety switches, which implement new
modularity principles up to now never applied to this type of
equipment, providing major usage practicability and operation
flexibility. The series, KB in plastic body, and KM in metal body,
are equipped with a wide range of interchangeable operating heads,
totally made of exceptionally robust metal. The operating head
fixing to the body consists of a bayonet sort of mechanism, which
consents to remove and reposition the head, without any need for
special tools. The elimination of the traditional screws is also
timesaving, especially during the device installation. The auxiliary
contact blocks, supplied with opened screws, can be removed from the
body to simplify cabling.
Up
to three different contact configurations are available and
configured with direct NC contact opening for both the snap and slow
action versions. Cable entry is standard supplied with a M20 metric
thread, as prescribed by recent international EN 50262 standards;
types with PG13.5 thread are available on request. Limit switches
can be purchased as complete equipment or else as single separate
components, comprising the operating head, body complete with
contacts as well as contact blocks, permitting, in this way, to
tailor and optimise stock management.
