Sprite™
|
Description
The Sprite is a hinge-actuated safety interlock switch in a compact housing—only 75 x 25 x 29 mm (2.95 x 0.98 x 1.14 in.)—making it the smallest interlock currently available. The Sprite has been designed for smaller machines such as printing machines, copiers and domestic machinery, which until now, have been able to use standard safety interlocks due to space restrictions. Despite its small size, the Sprite includes the necessary safety-related functions, such as forced-guided contacts and a tamper-resistant mechanism allowing machinery to be safeguarded in compliance with the machinery directive.
The shaft of the Sprite is connected to the existing hinge pin and the degree of operation can be adjusted to suit the application via the adjustable cam in the switch head.

IMPORTANT: After adjustment, the cam must be secured in position with the supplied cam locking pin to ensure optimal performance. |
