1CPS Series Cable Pull
Switch
Description: The 1CPS Cable
Pull Safety Switch is intended for use in applications
with the cable runs up to 76 m [250 ft], such as conveyor
runs within defined system zones. It is a cost-effective
means of providing this emergency stop signal compared to
multiple emergency stop push buttons. (Cable Pull Safety
Switches are not, however, to be used as a means of
personnel safeguarding. They may be used to prevent
further injury or damage to equipment when used for
emergency stop signaling.)
The 1CPS
Series Cable Pull Safety Switch is designed to provide
emergency stop protection for exposed conveyor lines. The
internal mechanism latches on both slackened cable (push)
and pulled cable. This capability enhances productivity
by eliminating nuisance stops due to variations in
temperature, stretch of cable over time, and other
application variables.
A line in the
midpoint of the cable tension window indicates proper
cable tension, providing easy and intuitive set-up. The
direct acting switch contacts are held closed when the
actuating cable is under proper tension and the reset
knob is set to RUN. When the actuating cable is pulled,
slackened or broken, a cam positively opens the NC
(Normally Closed) switch contacts. The snap action, trip
operation causes the switch contacts to change state and
mechanically latch almost simultaneously when the cable
is pulled, slackened or broken. The NC switch contacts
remain open until the 1CPS is reset by properly
tensioning the cable and manually rotating the reset
knob.
When the
direct acting switch contacts open, the auxiliary
contacts also actuate (open contacts close and closed
contacts open). The auxiliary contacts are electrically
isolated from the direct acting switch contacts. These NO
(Normally Open) contacts may be used for monitoring or
signaling.
The 1CPS
complies with: Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC, as
amended by directive 93/68/EEC; Machinery Directive
98/37/EEC only as the directives relate to the components
being used in a safety function; IEC/EN60947-1;
IEC/EN60947-5-1; IEC/EN60947-5-5.
