Safety Limit Switches
Safety Limit Switches
Safety limit switches — mechanical and contactless devices for detecting end positions of moving equipment parts, with interlock and emergency stop functions. Made of AISI 316 stainless steel or high-tech plastic, with lever/roller heads and springs for precise actuation. Compliant with EN ISO 14119, IEC 60947-5-1, IP67/IP69K protection and PL d / SIL 2 safety level. Ideal for food, pharmaceutical, machine building and chemical industries.
List of Safety Limit Switch Types

Advantages safety limit switches
IDEM/STEUATE limit switches provide:
-
precise position detection with minimal wear (roller heads);
-
hygiene (FDA/EHEDG, smooth surface);
-
vibration/shock resistance (IK08);
-
flexible mounting (compatible with guards). Mechanical design ensures reliability in cyclic operations.
Applications safety limit switches
-
Food industry: Position control on conveyors, packaging lines.
-
Pharmaceuticals: Safeguarding moving parts in clean rooms.
-
Machine building: Machines, presses, robotic lines.
-
Chemical industry: Pumps, valves in aggressive environments (ATEX option).
Installation and connection safety limit switches
-
Secure housing with M4 screws on moving/fixed part.
-
Adjust lever/roller for end-position actuation.
-
Connect cable (standard 2 m, M12 option). Maintenance — spring and contact check.
