Product Description

From extremely economical to extremely tough: it’s all there

Safety Switches and magnetically coded safety systems can be used to monitor movable guards such as protective doors, sliding grids or flaps, for example in the food, pharmaceutical or timber industries. Opening the protective devices triggers an E-STOP command. Safety Locking Devices keep the protective doors locked, thereby preventing the inadmissible access of people until the guarded machine no longer poses a danger. The access to the danger zone is only released by an electric signal when either the dangerous movement has stopped (personnel protection) or an uninterruptible work process has been finished (machine protection).

For doors, flaps and covers that must remain closed during the operation of machines, Safety Switches for position monitoring and for the protection of personnel and systems are required. They are predestined for guarding machines and systems in which process or production interruptions are, in principle, possible or may be necessary. In addition to standard designs for universal use, Safety Hinge Switches and Safety Position Switches are available as alternatives to hinge switches on flaps.

Safety Locking Devices keep protective doors securely locked and thereby prevent the inadmissible access of people until the guarded machine no longer poses a danger. Not until there is no longer a danger to the machine or to the workers is access released by an electric signal. The Safety Locking Devices thereby make an important contribution to personnel protection and machine protection. With their robust design, all Leuze electronic Safety Switches and Locking Devices are designed for rough industrial applications.
