So far adjustable, now readjustable – the EUCHNER Safety Hinge ESH–ARO
Up to now, the operating point of the hinge could not be changed if it was once adjusted. Consequently, the protection against tampering was on a high level but also an exchange of the hinge was necessary, if the guard is deformed or misaligned.
With the new ESH-ARO, EUCHNER presents an expanded version.
The new setting mechanism allows a multiple readjustment of the operating point of the new ESH-ARO. The pivoting range is adjustable at an angle from -10° bis 180°. This offers advantages especially when a guard is misaligned for example or a machine must be dismounted and rebuilt. Tamper protection does not have to be jeopardised: after adjusting the operating point, the setting mechanism is covered with a protection cap.
The ESH-ARO processes two switching elements. Depending on the version, these may be two positive opening NC contacts or one positive opening NC contact and one NO contact. The contacts switch a minimum current of 1mA. The safety hinge is thus suitable for use in safe control systems.
EUCHNER – More than safety.
