Hinge switches

The S400 safety hinge switches monitor the closing state of guards that can rotate, such as protection hoods or flaps. They unite the safety switch and door hinge functions in a single component with appealing design. Available as a second fastening element are passive hinges in the same design. The S410 variants with wide mounting fork are specially suitable for use on delicate glass or plastic components.
