Emerson Appleton Conveyor Belt Alignment Switch, AFA and AFAX

Appleton™ AFA and AFAX Conveyor Belt Alignment Switches

Brand: Appleton
Add Product to My Catalog

Appleton™ post style or large roller style conveyor belt alignment switches are used in the control circuit of magnetic motor starters to shut down motor driven conveyors in case of abnormal belt misalignment or run off.

They provide an emergency stop switch for convey or lines and bulk handling systems which become misaligned or run off their tracks due to excessive speed, uneven load, leveling, breakage or other problems.

The AFA Series is for use in industrial areas. The AFAX Series is for use in hazardous areas.
