TE Connectivity SCHRACK Force Guided Relays
TE Connectivity announces SCHRACK force guided relays

SCHRACK force guided relays are used in safety circuits in combination with light curtains, interlock switches, and emergency stop switches to control outputs. These are used to expand outputs for safety relay modules and safety controllers. In the design of the force guided relays, special importance was attached to the switching of low loads by the monitoring circuit. TE Connectivity (TE) has developed comprehensive documentation of forced guided relays which accelerates the development process for safety controls and application notes help to point out possible error sources.
