About The Albright SD250A-1 Emergency Stop Switch
Typically used on 24 Volts DC systems as an On-Off emergency stop solenoid or kill switch.
The SD250 has been designed to provide a rapid means of disconnecting batteries or other power supplies in the event of serious electrical faults.
The operation of the switch is such that with the operating knob depressed i.e. in the “off” position, no electrical functions can take place. However, if the knob is in the “On” position, the option of energising the coil and thus closing the main contacts becomes available. The coil energisation can be carried out either through the vehicle keyswitch or as a result of a signal from the vehicle electronic controller. When used as an emergency battery disconnect switch, manually depressing the operating knob will override the energised coil such that the main contact and the auxiliary contact (where fitted) will open until such time as the knob is again moved to the “on” position.
