Function
Safety enclosures equipped with SOCOMEC switches provide emergency breaking, breaking for mechanical maintenance, safety isolation and lock out in the vicinity of any low voltage final circuit.
Conformity to standards

Polyester safety enclosures – side operation is available in X versions
Advantages
Operator safety
- Visible contacts and positive break indication with the option to add a mechanical indicator.
- Double locking system prevents the opening of the enclosure door with the switch in its ON position and the closing of the switch when the door is open.
- Triple locking of the handle in the OFF position.
- Protects operators against accidental start-up of machines.
- Ease of operation without risk of error for unqualified operators.
- Maximum security for all types of simple mechanical and electrical maintenance operations.
Inductive load breaking (AC23)
Safety enclosures are designed for use with inductive loads and are able to make and break on-load (AC23).
Robust design
Products have been designed for severe industrial conditions with chemical, pollution or atmospheric corrosion risks (Polyester enclosure: good resistance to chemicals, self-extinguishable at 960°C, etc.)
Operating continuity
- Local disconnection: only the targeted machine is switched off, the rest of the installation can continue operating.
- Reduced costs related to production downtime.
