Fast and easy to install
● No tools required
● The spring-loaded tabs (a) ensure that
the actuator and the legend plate are in
the correct position and prevent rotation.
● Ridges (b) hold the actuator in position
during installation.
● The electrical and the mechanical in-
stallation can be done separately.
The snap-on feature of the contact
blocks also enables easy installation in
narrow spaces.

Emergency stop devices
The emergency stop range from ABB
is one of the first to pass the tough tests
required to fulfil the new standard –
IEC 947-5-5
Verified product safety
with new standard
The new product standard for electrical
emergency stop devices with mechanical
latching function, IEC 60 947-5-5
(1977-11), verifies the demands from the
Machine directive and its reference
standard EN 60204 (machine safety
standard).
To comply with the standard, a number of tests have to be conducted:
Durability test 6050 cycles. This is not a test of
maximum mechanical life. The product
has a mechanical life of 100 000
operations
Robustness
the force 113 N applied in three axis
Conditioning
heat and cold, moist atmosphere,
and in 5 % NaCl solution
Latching test
Impulse voltage test at 2 500 V
Resetting test
Pulling force <50 N
turning torque <1 Nm
Shock
15 g shock
Vibration
2 h at 50 m/s2
Contacts with
positive opening
operation
accordning to IEC 947-5-1 K.2.2.
Assembled stations
There are assembled stations of two types:
Non-metallic enclosures and Metallic enclosures
Example:
Emergency stop button in:
Yellow 1-seat non-metallic enclosure
Mushroom button or pushbuttons and
pilot lights in:
Non-metallic enclosures (Black lower part
and light-grey upper part) 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- or 6seat enclosure
Metallic enclosures (light-alloy) Grey box
with 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- or 6-seat
Signal Towers and
Signal Beacons
Signal Tower

without tools.
● Up to 5 elements possible/up to 10 elements with bracket for 2-sided mounting.
● Flashing light elements can be mounted
in each module.
● High protection rating optical and audible
signal elements with IP 54.
● LED elements for long life
Signal Beacons
● Tamper-proof design withstands every
mechanical and natural challange both
indoors and outdoors.
● High protection rating IP 65.
● Cap consists of high impact polycarbonate (up to 20 J).
● Bulb change via inside of control box
Accessories
By combining a few basic components together
with a wide range of accessories a large number
of different devices can be built.
Get prepared with ABB
Choosing the right emergency stop
device is critical in order to guarantee
the safety of your equipment.
The new range from ABB is one of
the first to pass the tough tests
required to fulfil the new standard
for emergency stop devices – IEC 947-5-5.

A pushbutton has to be sturdy and
reliable, applicable in all environments and adaptable to widely
differing requirements. Further, it
should be easy to fit or set up.
