The limit switches have been developed for Ex-areas where safe and reliable signalling is required, for example on pumps, petrol pumps, as well as in mechanical and high-tec engineering.The switches must be mounted into the respective devices or systems in such a way as to guarantee mechanical protection. No further tests are required. The connection cable is cast in on the back of the switch. For the connection in Ex-areas BARTEC provides a large variety of terminals and terminal boxes.
