Safety interlock switch Eaton Commercial Controls

Door interlock switches are attached to the door of equipment where it is necessary to turn power on or off when the door is closed or opened. This type of control is used in applications where maintenance and testing must be performed inside a cabinet.

Interlock switches are supplied with one 1PDT snap action switch or two 1PDT miniature snap action switches.

The snap action switches are mounted in a frame and a single actuator, which is spring loaded, operates the switch.

When mounted in a door, the closing of the door forces the actuator against the spring thereby closing the switch.

When the door is open, the actuator springs out thereby opening the power circuit. The interlock switch has a service position, which allows service personnel to turn power on even when the cabinet door is open. When the door is closed, the switch automatically resets to the normal closed position.
