Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0828266A2] A signalling- and/or protection device for process variables, in which a release or trip system is activated by displacement of a detection member (4), the displacement being dependent on the process variable, and the trip system (2) releasing an abrupt actuation of a movable contact element (6) of an auxiliary switch (7), via a coupling member (5). The contact element is held by a contact arm (9) on a carrier part (11) located in the protection device housing. The contact arm (9) is arranged in a guide slot (10) of the carrier part in such a way that the movable (6) and fixed (8) contact elements mutually abut against one another with a given contact force.
