The ES/EM 97 series position switches from steute are a universally applicable series of position switches. These position switches are characterized, among other things, by their modular design, compact housing, and user-friendliness.
The modular design allows for easy replacement of the actuator or rotation in steps of 90°. In addition to versions with various roller plungers, wire and roller levers, and plungers, there are also position switches available with a separate actuator ("AZ" version). Due to this flexibility, the ES/EM 97 position switches can be used for almost any application.
Despite the ES/EM 97 series meeting various safety requirements such as PLe according to EN ISO 13849-1 and SIL 3 according to EN 62061 (in combination with a suitable controller), the housings have remained very compact. This makes the position switches suitable for use as safety position switches in machines where space is limited.
In terms of user-friendliness, a significant improvement has also been made. The modular construction is already a good step, but the fact that the screws that need to be loosened cannot fall out of the detached part is a game-changer. Searching for a fallen screw and the time it takes is a thing of the past. Additionally, the switching element can be easily removed from the housing for easy access to the screw terminals. With all these improvements, not only has the user-friendliness been greatly improved, but the ES/EM 97 series is also cost-effective due to the much shorter assembly time.
With the addition of these ES/EM 97 series position switches from steute, a particularly compact, flexible, robust, and high-quality series of position switches has become available with a high level of user-friendliness that can be easily adapted to individual applications.
