It is a solenoid interlock switch designed for safety monitoring of movable guards (such as sliding, moving, and hinged doors, covers, and fences). It prevents access to hazardous machinery areas until unsafe conditions have completely ended.
This model uses an energize-to-unlock mechanism. The switch relies on a mechanical lock pin to hold the actuator in place. When control power (24V AC/DC) is applied to the unlocking coil, the lock bolt retracts, allowing the protective guard to open.
The solenoid interlock operates on a rated control voltage of 24V AC/DC and consumes a maximum of 10W of power. It has 6 contacts, featuring 1 normally-open and 2 normally-closed contacts for the magnet, plus 3 normally-closed contacts for the actuator.
Yes, it features a highly robust housing made of glass-fiber-reinforced, self-extinguishing thermoplastic. With an ingress protection rating of IP67, it is fully protected against dust and temporary liquid immersion, making it ideal for tough manufacturing environments.
The physical dimensions of the sensor housing are 30 mm in length, 130 mm in width, and 90 mm in height. The complete switch unit weighs approximately 500g and operates without the need for internal batteries.
