Emergency stop switch
In factories and the like where industrial machinery is installed, in order to ensure the safety of an operator in cases such as where a fault occurs during operation of machinery, an emergency stop switch for emergency stop of the machinery is necessarily provided. A machine is typically powered by an electrical power source and typically has an on/off switch for use during normal operating conditions. For safety reasons, a machine will usually also include an emergency stop switch for terminating electrical power to the machine in an emergency situation. The emergency switch is activated under circumstances demanding an immediate cessation of operation of the machine. Most of the conventional exercise apparatus driven by electric motor include an emergency stop switch in the circuit controller for an immediate cutoff of the power supply to stop the motor, thereby ensuring the safety of the operator. An emergency stop safety switch as commonly used in machinery or exercise equipment utilizes either a push-button or pull configuration.
