Push latch TAE

The TAE is a closing device for panels and surfaces that, in addition to finishing and covering the hole, includes an electrical status signal. With a single component, it both closes access and informs the system whether the cover is open or closed.

Operation
It is press-fitted into the panel hole. When the cover or associated element is actuated, the TAE opens or closes the signal circuit. This signal can be sent to a PLC, control board, or indicator (pilot light, alarm, enable signal). The electrical configuration acts according to the state (NO/NC), functioning as a circuit break detector and serving as a safety element to prevent injuries when accessing specific zones or parts of equipment, or as an energy-saving element by deactivating unnecessary loads.

Advantages
• Closing + electrical signal in one component.
• Quick installation, no tools required.
• Avoids external microswitches or sensors.
• Circuit break detector.
• Safety and/or energy-saving function.
• Clean and professional panel finish.

Applications
• HVAC and ventilation systems (inspection hatches, dampers, filters)
• Industrial machinery with access covers or panels
• Electronic devices and control panels
• Situations where it is necessary to know the open/closed status of a service point
