Banner Engineering ED1G Safety Enabling Device

Models with the momentary switch may be used to control a machine function, such as an inch/jog button, or a hold-to-run control. Hold-to-run control initiates and maintains machine function only as long as the manual control (actuator) is actuated.

For hold-to-run applications, both the three-position switch and the normally open momentary switch must be continually engaged to allow machine operation. If multiple individuals are exposed to the hazard, only a single individual can be in command of the hold-to-run control or other means of starting the machine function or cycle. All individuals within the hazard area must be provided their own enabling device or otherwise be safeguarded. Each enabling device must be concurrently operated before machine motion can be initiated.

• Three-position functionality (OFF-ON-OFF) as required for manual control of a machine
• Provides safety function when user either squeezes or releases the handlegrip switch
• Ergonomic design with a detented enable position (position 2)
• Terminal 1-2 and 3-4 contacts will not re-close when released from fully squeezed (position 3)
• Ideally suited for use as an enabling device for robotic cells
• Optional momentary pushbutton switch (depending on model) that can provide hold-to-run, reset, or jogging/inching functions
• Built-in strain relief and M20x1.5 conduit connection
• Meets IP65 or IP66, depending on model
• Insulated device (IEC 60947-5-1) on all models
• Design meets or exceeds:
  • ANSI RIA R15.06 and ISO 10218 Robot safety standard
  • ANSI B11.19 Performance Criteria for Safeguards
  • ANSI NFPA 79 (2007) and IEC 60204-1 (2000) Electrical Requirements for Industrial Machines
