Safety interlocks

Bloomington, Minn. —Sick’s new line of safety interlock switches include light duty plastic to standard heavy duty to extra heavy duty. Switches are available with attached roller or lever actuators and two-piece with removable blade-style actuators. A radio encoded noncontact interlock switch is rated for Type 4 safety applications. The noncontact T4000 comes in three parts: evaluation unit that houses the contacts, sensing head, and actuator. When the actuator is moved towards the read head and the switch-on distance is reached, power is supplied to the actuator via the inductive read head and data are transmitted by radio frequency. www.sickoptic.com Sick Inc.
