Schmersal TESK series safety hinge switches

Click2Contact

Schmersal has released the TESK series of safety hinge switches, featuring freely adjustable switching angles and the option to select up to four contact configurations with cable or plug connections.

The construction of the TESK series allows it to be mounted on the hinge side of the rotating guard, replacing the need for a conventional hinge and helping to monitor the position of the guard. Additionally, as the safety switch is not visible to the operator, the TESK series offers high protection against tampering. For machine builders, it is a major benefit as the majority of machines and enclosures are constructed with the commercially available aluminium profile systems.

The sleek appearance of Schmersal’s fourth generation of safety hinge switches is a suitable solution for the position monitoring of protection doors including double swing doors on design-oriented machines.
