Rotacam Heavy Duty
A heavy-duty hinge actuated safety interlock switch, the Rotacam shaft can be used as, or connected to, the existing hinge pin for direct operation of the switch. Machine power is isolated when the guard has been opened just 5°. For applications requiring a larger degree of operation the internal cam can be adjusted from 5° to 11°.
Note: After adjustment, the cam must be secured in position with the supplied cam locking pin to ensure optimalperformance.
The Rotacam is available with two N.C. safety contacts and one N.O. auxiliary contact. The switch 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 die-cast housing is sealed to IP66 and features one M16 conduit entry (Pg11 or 1/2"NPT also available). Two different shaft lengths of 30mm and 85mm can also be specified.
