The key operated safety interlock switches, specifically designed for machine guarding applications, provide an ideal solution for the locking or interlocking of movable guards associated with industrial machinery.
The start control circuit of the machine is opened (switched-off) when the guard is removed or opened, using positive opening operation contacts.
The removal/opening of the guard (after hazardous movements have stopped) can either be:
• at the time the machine is switched-off for low inertia machines (machines whose rundown time is less than the time it takes for the operator to access the danger zone), or
• delayed for high inertia machines (machines whose rundown time is greater than the time it takes for the operator to access the danger zone).
General Safety Company can offer a full range of safety interlock switches for machine guarding applications. They meet the requirements of the standards EN 292-2, EN 294, EN 1088 and IEC/EN 60204-1. All switches are CSA certified or cUL listed.
