Cable pull switches are manually operated electrical control devices activated by pulling a cable or rope. They serve as emergency stop systems or process control interfaces in industrial and commercial equipment. These switches convert mechanical cable movement into electrical signal changes, playing critical roles in safety systems and machine control circuits.
| Type | Function Features | Application Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanical Cable Pull Switch | Direct mechanical actuation with physical contact | Conveyor belt emergency stop |
| Magnetic Cable Pull Switch | Contactless operation with magnetic field detection | Automotive production lines |
| Limit Switch with Cable Actuator | Precise position detection with mechanical linkage | Industrial gate control systems |
| Multi-directional Pull Switch | 360 rotational activation capability | Material handling equipment |
Typical construction includes: - Reinforced polymer/metal housing - Stainless steel cable with synthetic coating - Internal actuator mechanism (cam, spring, or magnet) - Electrical contact block (silver alloy contacts) - Cable anchor point with tension adjustment - IP65+ environmental sealing
