Emergency stop pushbuttons are essential in automated machines and plants. They make it possible for someone to stop a machine or a system immediately in case of an emergency.

Enabling switches ensure that even critical machine functions are performed safely. They are used when work has to be performed in the hazardous area in "setup" operating mode. All enabling switches are configured as 3-stage switches, i.e., movements can only be activated in the middle position because this is the only position in which all contacts are closed.
