Why Choose the Lovato RS21310 Rope-Pull Lever Limit Switch?
The Lovato RS21310 is a rope-pull lever limit switch for normal stopping, designed to EN 50047 dimensions for industrial machinery and conveyor control applications. It uses a robust steel operating ring and provides remote mechanical actuation through a connected pull rope.
The RS21310 features 1NO + 1NC slow-action contacts, distinguishing it from the snap-action RS11310 variant. The contact system has a conventional thermal current rating of 10 A and a rated insulation voltage of 250 V, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial control circuits.
A durable polymer thermoplastic housing, PG11 cable entry and IP65 protection support installation in demanding machinery environments. The switch is supplied without a reset button and is intended for normal stopping rather than emergency-stop applications.
Key Advantages
- Rope-pull operation enables control from an extended position along machinery or conveyors.

Reliable Slow-Action Rope-Pull Control
The Lovato RS21310 enables a machine-control circuit to be actuated through a connected pull rope, making it particularly useful on conveyors and elongated machinery where operation may be required from multiple positions along the equipment. Pulling the rope operates the switch through its durable steel ring mechanism.
Its slow-action 1NO + 1NC contact arrangement provides controlled contact transition as the operating mechanism moves. The RS21310 is designed for normal stopping and does not incorporate the manual reset mechanism associated with dedicated rope-pull emergency-stop switches.
Typical Applications
- Conveyor normal-stop control.
- Material handling systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Production and assembly lines.
- Long or distributed machine installations.
- Industrial machine-control circuits.
- Machinery requiring remotely actuated rope-pull switching.
