SSS Electronic Safety Switch

Description 

Mechan Controls have been manufacturing electronic safety switches since 1973. The SSS safety switch uses this tried and tested, electronic switching technology and adds the benefits of having the safety contact outputs in the switch itself. 

The SSS is a tamper-proof, standalone saftey switch that can be used to switch relays, contactors or safety relays directly. Only a Mechan actuator will operate the SSS switch correctly.

By removing the need for a seperate control unit, we have made it possible to use our top of the range electronic switching technology in smaller, simpler safety systems. With the SSS you get the reliability of the Mechan electronic safety system with the ease of installation of a standard magnetic switch like the MAGNASAFE.

Suitable for single or dual channel circuits, the SSS safety switch has 2 volt free contact outputs ( 2 N/O or 1 N/O + 1 N/C ). The fixed switch also has an LED, giving true indication.

When the moving part of the switch ( Actuator ) is brought within the operating range of the fixed switch, (8mm target to target), a dynamic signal is generated in the actuator and transmitted to the switch. The N/O contact(s) in the switch will close and the N/C contact will open.
