Position switches are used to monitor the position of moving parts of machines and systems.
They can be used in safety circuits as the device satisfies the standard EN 60947-5-1 (VDE 0660 Part 200) and the normally closed contacts are positive opening contacts.
The switching element and the actuating element of category 1 safety switches form a constructional and functional unit.
As a result of the galvanic isolation of the moving contacts, the position switch is suitable for switching various potentials.
