A special safety contact block prevents contact elements from being released without detection. With its yellow border, the contact block is designed to be easily recognizable as a safety element. Together with the contact elements, it forms a fixed unit, so it cannot be wrongly configured, nor can individual contact elements be attached incorrectly, the vendor says. The contact elements are gold-coated, enabling them to control even very low, 1 mA currents, within the safety circuit. The PIT emergency stop pushbutton is designed to IP65. Turn-to- release and key-release versions are also available.
