IDEC X6 E-Stop and HE6B Enabling Switches

IDEC X6 Series Emergency Stop Switches offer a unibody design, reducing the depth to 23.9mm for compactness. These devices feature Safe Break Action that ensures NC contacts open even if damaged. The X6 Estop is available in 30mm and 40mm sizes. These switches are also available in red or yellow, with or without arrow markings. The X6 series comes with a rated insulation voltage of 250V and a rated thermal current of 5A.

IDEC HE6B Series Enabling Switches are equipped with a waterproof rubber boot for IP65 protection and are available in yellow or black. These 3-position enabling switches are designed for human interaction in potentially hazardous areas. The HE6B series activates machines when pressed and deactivates when overpressed or squeezed. These devices feature dual contacts that ensure safety redundancy and meet IEC 60947-5-8 standards.
