£28.07
The Pizzato FL 2178-E7M2 is a robust rope safety switch with reset for emergency stop designed to provide an accessible emergency-stop function along conveyors, material handling systems and other extended industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato FL Series, it enables personnel to initiate an emergency stop by operating a correctly installed safety rope running alongside the protected equipment.
This exact FL 2178 configuration incorporates a B21 contact block with 3NC slow-action contacts. Positive-opening operation provides direct mechanical opening of the safety contacts when the rope mechanism is actuated, supporting dependable integration into safety-related machine control circuits.
The FL 2178-E7M2 features a durable metal housing with three M20 × 1.5 threaded cable entries and provides IP67 protection according to EN 60529. Its manual reset emergency-stop mechanism ensures deliberate restoration of the switch following an emergency-stop demand.
Rope-operated emergency-stop switches are particularly effective on conveyors and long machines where emergency-stop access is required over an extended distance. A tensioned safety rope connects to the FL 2178-E7M2 mechanism, enabling personnel to operate the emergency-stop switch from accessible positions along the protected installation.
Once actuated, the manual-reset mechanism requires deliberate restoration before normal operation can resume. Combined with three normally closed slow-action contacts, positive-opening operation, a metal enclosure and IP67 protection, the FL 2178-E7M2 provides a dependable electromechanical solution for industrial emergency-stop systems.
