FEATURES/APPLICATIONS
These switches are a low force slack cable style with "slow-make"/"slow-break" and "snap action" contacts. Only the 03275-000 is "positive break" and "positive transfer" and can be used for an emergency stop application. The switches are basically push button devices operated through a nickel plated operating lever attached to the cover. Care must be taken when choosing and installing the operating rope because the low operating forces can be easily overcome and switches will not trip or reset properly. The open style switches must be secured to suitable enclosure. A sealing gasket and 4 mounting screws are supplied with each switch. The 04956-300 is a complete assembly consisting of (1) 03275-500 switch and (1) 02765-000 sheet metal enclosure powder coated black. On all the switches, each captive terminal will accept (2)#14 AWG stranded wires. The silver composite contacts are gold plated to eliminate high resistance tarnishing. The life of the switches is in excess of 1,000,000 mechanical operations. These low force switches can be used for door control, signal devices, automation systems warning devices, etc. The maximum recommended rope (not supplied) length is 33 feet, with a maximum interval support of 10 feet when horizontal.
