The EMO box (Emergency OFF) used on many PHI systems has switches that can become noisy, stick or fail to operate at all. These switches are used to turn on and off the card rack power, main electronics console power, vacuum console power, bakeout power and to turn off and reset all power.
Another very common issue is that the light bulbs in the switches tend to burn out on a yearly basis. This blog post will describe where to get replacement parts for the EMO boxes.
The round red EMO button switch is still available but the original square push button switches that were produced by Cutler-Hammer (now Eaton) are very difficult to find. Honeywell equivalents are listed below.
There are two styles of EMO boxes. The 32-005 style has a Bakeout switch and the other style has a Vacuum Console power switch.
Equivalent replacement switches produced by Honeywell are listed below.
