The Series AZ15/16 is designed for use with movable machine guards/access gates which must be closed for operator safety. Their positive-opening NC contacts provide a significantly higher level of safety than conventional spring-driven switches whose contacts can weld or stick shut. And their tamper-resistant design prevents bypassing with simple tools, bent wires or other readily available means. Their IP67 rating makes them ideal for interlocking safety guards in hostile environments.

Features & Benefits:

• Highly tamper-resistant actuating mechanism … difficult to defeat with simple tools, tape, bent wires, etc. Reduces liability exposure.

• Non-removable actuating head … heightens tamper-resistance.

• Four optional key entry locations … provide installation flexibility.

• Individually-coded actuator key option (15,000 codes) … provides extra security in high-risk applications.

• "Positive-Break" NC contacts … assure circuit interruption upon actuator key removal.

• High key retention force (7 pounds) … eliminates inadvertent opening of guard due to shock/vibration.

• Watertight design … meets IP67 washdown requirements.

• High-strength, stainless-steel actuator key … tolerates mechanical abuse without damage.

• Rugged, corrosion-resistant housing … tolerates the most hostile environments.

• Wide selection of accessories … to meet diverse application requirements.

• Padlockable key … for added security during equipment maintenance.

• Meets rigid safety agency standards … BG, UL and CSA.
