Product Details
Idem guard locking switches are engineered for effective position interlock detection in moving guards, featuring a robust lock mechanism that ensures the guard remains closed until the associated hazard is cleared. These switches are tongue-operated and specifically designed to attach to the leading edge of sliding or hinged machine guards, delivering positively operated switching contacts alongside a tamper-resistant, non-easily defeatable key mechanism. They can be utilized independently to achieve positively operated contacts compliant with EN60947-5-1 or in conjunction with dual-channel safety monitoring relays to achieve up to Performance Level e (PL e) in accordance with ISO 13849-1, or Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3) as per EN62061.
