Pizzato Elettrica has designed and patented new accessories to install the rope of safety switches faster and to obtain an aesthetically more pleasant system.
The new accessories, in comparison with the traditional fixing system through carpentry material, have the following advantages:
%u2022 The installation is faster because only one screw is used for the fastening of every rope extremity, and the parts are prepared to ease the installation. Some practical tests have pointed out that the installation time is halved, reason for which it is named FAST.
%u2022 The system is aesthetically pleasant, because thread parts (which sometimes tear operators%u2019 dresses) and the rope extremities, usually fixed by heat-shrinkable sheath or adhesive tape, have been hidden.
%u2022 The red plastic covers of the fixing parts have been developed also for the function of controlling the rope clamping. If the rope fastening screw is not fixed tightly enough, the cover cannot pass.
%u2022 The rope is fixed without folds, thus reducing the rope stabilisation time and the possible re-calibrations of the rope tightening.
Furthermore two sturdy pulleys has been introduced in applications where the rope is very long in order to support the rope length or to bend its route. They are designed to avoid any deformation and to allow the rope to remain in its seat also when it is energetically activated. |

Command devices are of great importance for the man-machine interface in the area of industrial applications. For example, they are mounted in switch-boards, control panels, two-hand control panels, in lift manufacture and on materials-handling plants, including conveyors. Manual actuation of the devices starts operating sequences and functional processes or serves to bring these to an end.
Emergency Stop command devices are generally connected in the safety circuit of a machine or plant and are of particular importance in terms of the control system for these. In case of a fault or accident, the secure function and quick accessibllity of Emergency Stop command devices can be crucial for saving life, limiting the degree of injury to personnel or the extent of damage to a machine.
New requirements are placed on the mode of operation of these command devices by the new harmonised European Standard EN 418 regarding functional aspects and recommendations for the arrangement of Emergency Stop equipment.

Explosion proof switches are used wherever the ambient conditions are such that the presence of inflammable substances, oxygen and a source of ignition are to be anticipated simultaneously. The primary applications are to be found in the chemical and petro-chemical industries as well as paint lines. Protection against explosions is often also necessary where a large collection of line powder can develop such that a movement of air can lead to a spontaneous detonation. Examples include mills, wood processing and food processing industry.

Sealed and high temperature precision switches contain a spring and set of contacts that convert mechanical energy applied to an actuator into an electrical output. Environmentally sealed switches are basic precision switches enclosed within a corrosion-resistant aluminum housing that seals the switch contacts from contamination. Hermetically sealed switches include those that maintain the contact in a gas-tight seal while transmitting force and motion to the switch mechanism through a metal diaphragm. High temperature versions have the switching element mounted on a ceramic base with a stainless steel enclosure. Wide variety of actuators, terminations, circuitry configurations, electrical ratings, contact materials and operating characteristics provide application flexibility. Meet military standards. U.S., European and other approval agency allow global use.
Best Used For:
Presence/absence detection where physical contact with an object is permissible as well as applications requiring compactness, light weight, accurate repeatability and long life such as are found in aerospace agriculture, transportation, construction, marine, ordnance and command and control equipment.

Safety coded magnetic sensor, SR-SM series
Pizzato Elettrica offers on the market the new safety magnetic sensor SR-SM series.
Safety magnetic sensors are devices studied to monitor protections and guards that, when linked to a safety module, can create a system up to safety category 4, according to EN 954-1. These products are composed by a magnetic field monitoring sensor, which is connected to the machine structure; and by a coded magnetic actuator, which has to be connected to the mobile guards. The sensor is manufactured to be activated only by the correct coded actuator and not through a common magnet.
Pizzato Elettrica safety sensors distinguish themselves by following main features:
• Insensitivity to dirt as totally sealed, making them especially proper to be used in the food-industry sector.
• Wide actuation zone, characteristic appreciated in the use of inaccurate protections or for protections that can change their mechanical characteristics through the time.
• Stainless steel fixing plates to avoid that the sensor could be damaged during the installation.
• Possibility of connection in series more sensors also with mechanical switches.
• Actuation from two different directions.
• Available with cable or M8 integrated connector.
• Actuators with operating distance of 5mm or 8 mm.
The new sensor series complete the wide range of products that Pizzato Elettrica can offer in the machine safety field. For further information visit our web-site www.pizzato.com or ask for special documentation. |

SAFETY SWITCHES HINGE-SHAPED, PALLADIO LINE
Pizzato Elettrica widens the own range of products making a new series of safety switches hinge-shaped named Palladio, where thanks to an aimed planning and a punctual analysis of the market requirements, safety and style are melted in one single product. The switch is completely integrated in the mechanical hinge, to result practically invisible to an inexpert eye. This guarantees a higher safety because a switch hard to identify is consequently also more difficult to defeat.
The assembly without visible screws and the pleasant line, make the switch perfectly integrated also with guards of modern design machinery.
In order to complete the offer it’s available also an additional hinge with purely mechanics functions.
The innovation of the product regards also the technical aspects, as following:
• Several contact blocks up to 4 contacts (2 NC contacts + 2 NO contacts).
• Possibility of operating point regulation (fundamental for large guards).
• Protection degree IP67.
• Integrated cable or connector output available from the frontal or the rear side. |

The V5 Sealed is the latest addition to Crouzet's sealed microswitch range. It offers the same degree of technical innovation and adaptability as the existing ranges.
Its compact dimensions, combined with an IP 67 level of protection, make it an ideal component for industrial applications that require ease of integration and safety in damp conditions. With minimum overtravel of 2 mm and multidirectional actuation up to 45°, the V5 Sealed microswitch's high performance levels make it possible to reduce development costs, thanks to its technical flexibility. Its front-end mechanical life of 1 million cycles ensures reliability.
In order to guarantee the signal for self-check functions, the V5 Sealed can integrate surface mounted components between the terminals within the same footprint, thus avoiding the need to develop a separate printed circuit. The modularity of the V5 Sealed switch allows a wide choice of catalogue configurations: lead outputs or tag terminals, positioning of fixing pins and fixing plate.
Like the rest of the microswitch range, the V5 Sealed switch can be adapted to your applications by adding special connections and outputs, as well as customised actuators. |
