Telescopic cover stays from EMKA are used with horizontal or vertical covers on control panels, either for support or simply as a wind stay. New 1097 variants incorporate a facility for manual pushbutton/pull cord operation. This facilitates operation of widely-spaced multiple stays on very wide covers of one metre length or more. It also enables simple operation and enhanced safety.
Standard features of the 1097 series include automatic or manual release types in sizes up to the new 710mm (extended length) 1097-U6 version. Automatic release operates when the open cover is raised (to release the locked stay), then closed. Manual release ensures an added level of safety - requiring somebody to physically push the release button or pull the cord for release.
All 1097 type telescopic cover stays are adjustable for opening angle, dependent upon the mounting configuration. Two-position release systems are also offered.
