The BMUHAFAZA is a simple thermoplastic guard ring that fits around most 22mm pushbuttons to stop accidental knocks or bumps from operating them while still allowing a deliberate press through the open prongs. At under a pound and held in UK stock, it’s a cheap insurance policy against unintended machine starts or unwanted resets in busy environments, and clips on in seconds with no tools.
Maximum width/diameter of button to facilitate reset = 40mm
Overall height of shroud / protrusion from mounting = 25mm
Internal distance between prongs = 50mm
Prevents accidental operation and release. Avoids mechanical shocks and damage. Lightweight and easily identifiable.
Fit in accordance with relevant codes of practise.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this stop someone from pressing the button on purpose? No it’s designed to prevent accidental knocks and bumps, not deliberate operation. A person can still reach through the prongs to press the button intentionally.
What size buttons does it fit? It suits the majority of standard 22mm pushbuttons up to 40mm head diameter, with 50mm internal spacing between the guard prongs.
Does it protect against physical damage as well as accidental presses? Yes the raised guard also helps absorb mechanical knocks that could otherwise damage the button itself, useful in busy or cramped work areas.
Does fitting this affect machine safety compliance? Check your relevant code of practice or risk assessment before fitting guards on emergency stops in particular can affect accessibility requirements, so confirm the fitment doesn’t compromise required response times.
