These industrial-grade and outdoor-rated models are designed in the space-saving size essential for robotic and industrial equipment applications, with innovative features to meet the increased requirements of international safety standards. IDEC has designed the XA/XW series to minimize the installation depth behind the mounting surface. Available in 16mm for the XA and 22mm for the XW, these new E-stops now require an industry-leading 12.6mm of space behind the mounting surface for solder terminal styles, and 18.0mm for tab terminal styles.
