Key Switches for Safety

The GKN Series has positive opening safety contacts and double insulation, meeting IEC 60947-5-1 requirements. A choice of five switch contact configurations, including two with three contacts, accommodates a variety of application needs. The GKN Series rotating head allows actuator engagement from the front, back or either of two top positions for a total of four different actuation entry points. “This feature makes the product easy to adjust in the field, as well as reduces the number of units customers need to keep in stock,” says Product Manager Karl Gustafson.
