Pull Cord Switch Rope Pull 1NO 1NC IP66 C025098A0 TER

The TER C025098A0 is a pull cord switch, also known as a rope pull switch, used to stop a conveyor or machine from anywhere along its length. A cable runs beside the belt and anchors at the far end. Pull it at any point and the switch operates, which means an operator standing mid run does not have to reach a fixed stop button to shut the line down.

The pull ring actuator operates with snap action contacts, so the changeover happens quickly and cleanly instead of drifting as the cord is pulled. That matters on a safety circuit, where slow contact separation can arc and weld. One normally open and one normally closed contact come as standard, so the switch can break the control supply and signal the condition to a PLC from the same device.

Rated AC15 400V 4A, it handles contactor coil switching directly at three phase control voltages. The metal body with IP66 protection resists dust ingress and powerful water jets, which suits quarries, grain handling, cement plants and outdoor conveyor runs where a plastic enclosure would not last. A single M20 gland entry keeps the installation simple, and the 30mm width means it fits on narrow conveyor frames. Made in Italy by TER.

Technical Specifications

Common Applications

Belt conveyor emergency stop runs in quarries, mining and aggregate handling, grain and feed processing lines, cement and bulk material plants, packaging and bottling conveyors, baggage handling systems, and any long machine where an operator may be standing far from a fixed stop station.

Related Switches and Safety Devices

A pull cord switch covers length. Where you need to detect a part arriving at one fixed point instead, a limit switch is the right device and the actuator depends on the approach. For heavy outdoor equipment, the big wheel limit switch AZ-5108L and the ball limit switch AZ-5109 both carry IP67 sealing and 10A ratings.

For lighter indoor duty, the lever limit switch AZ-7120 is a compact side mount option, the roller plunger limit switch AM-1308 handles 15A from a top roller, and the adjustable roller lever limit switch AZ-8108 lets you set the lever length. Where a load may overrun and bend a rigid actuator, the spring limit switch AZ-8166 flexes and returns.

Pull cords usually sit alongside panel mounted stop controls, so pair the installation with a 16mm emergency stop switch A16LMSS4R at the control station for local shutdown.

FAQ,s

What is a pull cord switch?

It is a safety switch operated by a cable running along a machine. Pulling the cable anywhere along its length trips the switch and stops the equipment, so an operator does not have to reach a fixed button.

What is the difference between a pull cord switch and a rope pull switch?

They are the same device. Pull cord switch and rope pull switch are two names for the same type of emergency stop used on conveyors and long machinery.

Why does it use snap action contacts?

Snap action makes the contacts separate quickly regardless of how slowly the cord is pulled. Slow separation causes arcing, which burns and eventually welds the contacts.

What does 1NO 1NC mean here?

One normally open and one normally closed contact. The NC pair breaks the control circuit when pulled, while the NO pair closes and can signal the condition to a PLC or warning lamp.

Is IP66 suitable for outdoor conveyors?

Yes. IP66 means fully dust tight and protected against powerful water jets, so it handles rain, dust and washdown on outdoor and dirty indoor conveyor runs.

How long a cable can one switch cover?

That depends on the model and tension arrangement. Contact us on +971 52 913 9543 with the conveyor length and we will advise whether one switch or a pair at each end is required.
