Safety stop
September 1st 2010

Rockwell Automation recently earned TÜV certification for the B10d Functional Safety rating on all styles of Allen-Bradley emergencystop push buttons. Users can take the certified safety product data and include the products in calculating the safety level of their entire control safety system. This helps improve worker safety as designers have greater insight into when components, like e-stop push buttons, will need to be replaced or repaired – helping to ensure safety system reliability.

E-stop push buttons – used to cease motion to help prevent injury to workers or damage to machinery - are a critical component for automation systems.
