A kill switch, also known more formally as an emergency brake, emergency stop (E-stop), emergency off (EMO), or emergency power off (EPO), is a safety mechanism used to shut off machinery in an emergency, when it cannot be shut down in the usual manner.

An E-stop, or emergency stop device, is a safety mechanism used on machinery that provides an immediate halt to operations in critical situations. When activated, by either pushing a button or pulling a rope, it sends a signal to the machine's control system to cease all functions, preventing potential injury to workers and damage to materials.

2023年1月9日 · The standards that dictate how an e-stop switch works are ISO 13850:2015, Safety of Machinery – Emergency Stop Function—Principles for Design; and IEC 60947-5-5, Low-Voltage Switchgear and Controlgear—Part 5.5: Control Circuit Devices and Switching Elements—Electrical Emergency Stop Device with Mechanical Latching Function.

2023年11月10日 · An emergency stop (e-stop) is a safety mechanism used in industrial machines and automation systems. It is an easily accessible button or switch that, when pressed or activated, immediately halts the operation of a machine or an entire industrial system.

2009年3月6日 · An e-stop is a function intended for use in Emergency conditions to try to limit or avert harm to someone or something. It isn’t a safeguard but is considered a Complementary Protective Measure. Looking at emergency stop functions from the perspective of the Hierarchy of Controls, emergency stop functions fall into the same level as Personal ...

Emergency stop switches (also referred to as E-stop, kill switch, emergency off, and emergency power off) are used in applications where there is a need to shut down equipment or machinery quickly.

An Emergency Stop (E-Stop) is a critical safety mechanism in programmable logic controller (PLC) systems. It halts ongoing actions by disconnecting the control circuit via relays or contactors. E-Stops are indispensable in industrial automation, ensuring equipment and personnel safety during emergencies.

E-stop (emergency stop) push buttons, pull cords, and other e-stop devices are designed to be highly visible by using the standard red and yellow colors. These E-stop buttons and pull cords are positioned throughout the robot system on of a variety of equipment and conveyors.

2024年5月8日 · An emergency stop switch, also known as an E-Stop, is a safety mechanism used to quickly shut down machinery or equipment in emergency situations when standard shutdown procedures are not feasible.
