Product Description

Schneider XCS-E7311

The Schneider Electric XCS-E7311 is a robust safety interlock switch designed for machine guarding applications. Part of the Preventa XCS safety range, this metal-enclosed switch features a solenoid locking mechanism that ensures machine guards remain closed and locked until hazardous operations have safely ceased. It is typically used to protect operators by preventing access to dangerous areas until the machine is in a safe state. The XCS-E7311 offers a high level of safety integrity, suitable for demanding industrial environments.
