EAO's emergency stop switches are designed to reliably protect people from injury and prevent damage to machines, systems or vehicles, even in harsh environments and in tight installation conditions. Emergency stop switches with positive opening function (in accordance with DIN EN ISO 13850 and EN 60204-1) primarily serve to protect people. Emergency stop switches are always foolproof. They are easily recognisable by the red lens with yellow actuator or yellow protective shroud.

Advantages

• 100% switching reliability and foolproof, even in harsh environments
• Low back panel depth
• Large range of minimum and maximum switch ratings
• Illuminated
• Resistant to impact, vibration and shock
• Usable down to – 40 °C
• Very long service life for mechanical and electrical components
• Available with standards-compliant protective shroud

Two buttons in one.

Twice as good and space-saving: EAO's aesthetic and robust double push buttons open up new, additional possibilities for you thanks to the integrated and independent second button.

Advantages

• Compact construction – two buttons in one
• Range of colours and marking options
• IP69K protection
• Optional illumination
• Plastic or metal versions
• Up to three contacts for each push button

Universally applicable actuators and indicators: push buttons from EAO are the right choice if reliability and first-class haptics are what counts for you.

Push buttons are ideal for mechanical engineering, control engineering, public and private passenger transport, lifting and conveying systems, heavy duty and special vehicles, and the automotive industry.

Advantages

• Intuitive to use
• Excellent haptic feedback
• Large selection of operation areas
• Wide range of colours for lenses
• Wide variety of symbols and markings, including customer-specific options
• Very long service life for mechanical and electrical components
• Wide range of minimum and maximum switching ratings

With snap-action switching element.

Stop switches are different from emergency stop switches because they do not have to be foolproof. Thanks to their snap-action element, they are particularly suitable for use as on/off switches worldwide in mobile control units as well as in apparatus and mechanical engineering.

Advantages

• Reliable switching
• Extremely low back panel depth (18.8 mm)
• Large range of minimum and maximum switch ratings
• Optional illumination
• Wide range of lenses and lens colours
• Resistant to impact, shock and vibration
• Usable down to – 40 °C
• Very long service life for mechanical and electrical components
• Available with standards-compliant protective shroud

Durable, functional and safe.

The modules are designed for E1 applications and are suitable for safety-relevant applications in accordance with DIN EN ISO 13849. The CAN bus connection ensures an intelligent and free programmability. The robust, modular design with sealing levels of up to IP6K9K according to DIN ISO 20653 and the ability to customize and individually select and arrange the keypad legends make these high-quality devices ideally suited for harsh use in heavy duty and special vehicles.

Advantages

• Robust, ergonomic and innovative design sealed up to IP6K9K protection
• Suitable for functional safety applications according to DIN EN ISO 13849
• Intelligent HMIs with CAN bus integration
• Programmable 4-segment RGB halo ring illumination for function feedback
• High flexibility due to interchangeable ISO 7000 or customised symbols

Series 09 Protective Shroud

The robust and shock-resistant Series 09 Protective Shroud not only provides reliable protection against unintentional actuation and operating errors, but also serves to comply with specific standards in various areas of application. For example, the EN1501-1:2021 standard requires all control and monitoring units on the outside of garbage trucks to be secured against accidental actuation or contact. The new Protective Shroud of Series 09 separates the individual push buttons. The additional guidance of the fingers makes it easy to operate the desired function even when wearing work gloves.

• Prevention of unintentional actuation
• Finger guidance and separation of the individual push buttons
• Reduced risk of operating errors
