Jokab Safety has been awarded an IP69K specification for its Eden E safety switches.

Eden E is a high integrity version of the standard Eden switches.

The switches are enclosed in a polypropen covering, which means that the switches can be used in areas where there is a possibility of water spray and rapid change of temperature.

Eden E has been successfully used on machinery in dairies and process plant, as these areas require the machinery to be washed down with high-pressure hoses.

Eden E is made up of two components.

Adam E 10M is an active component and has a 10m cable connection, whereas Eva E is a passive component and requires no electrical connection at all.

Eden E is a noncontact switch and has a sensing distance of around 12mm.

The sensors can be mounted such they have a 360-degree possibility.

The safety switches have an LED indicator to enable to user to see what state the sensor is during alignment and operation.

Typical applications for Eden switches are - doors and hatches and position control.

Eden safety switches interface with a Vital 1 control unit to offer the user a safety category 4 solution.
