FS, safety foot switch
Safety foot switches bridge the function of guards such as
that of a safety gate. They therefore enable hazardous move-
ments even when the safety gate is open. This may be neces-
sary, for example, for setting up a machine.
The make contact closes when the foot pedal is actuated up
to the pressure point. If in the event of a hazard the pedal is
actuated beyond the pressure point, the positively driven
break contact is opened and mechanically interlocked. An
additional pushbutton is implemented for the release. The
safety foot switch does not then move over the switch on
point when it is reset.
The function block operates with 2-channel or 4-channel
safety foot switches. easySafety allows the monitoring of up
to 7 safety foot switches.
h
When used properly, the enable does not trigger the
hazardous movement but simply initiates the enable
signal for triggering the movement.
