Mitigating Emergency Stop Spurious Trips in Industrial Control Systems
Emergency stop (E-Stop) pushbuttons serve as vital safety devices in factory automation and process control plants. Functional safety standards mandate normally-closed (NC) contact blocks to ensure fail-safe operation during wiring breaks or power outages. However, mechanical degradation over time can trigger unexpected spurious trips, halting production lines without an actual emergency. Understanding the underlying causes of mechanical contact failure allows automation engineers to implement robust, fault-tolerant safety circuits.
