The compact AZM170 Series is designed for machines/work cells where access to a hazardous work area must be controlled until safe conditions exist. Their solenoid-latching feature permits locking a machine guard until dangerous conditions, which may exist immediately after removal of power, have abated. Solenoid-latching may be controlled by a time delay, motion detector, position sensor or other suitable component.

The unit features independent actuator key (guard) position and solenoid-latching pin position contacts. These permit the prevention of machine restart until the guard is closed and the solenoid-latching pin is in the locked position.

The AZM170 consists of an electromechanical safety interlock switch joined to a solenoid-latching mechanism. Both the safety switch and solenoid mechanism feature "positive-break" contacts. In addition the actuator key features a built-in latch (unlocked key holding force of 7 pounds), and an auxiliary manual unlocking device … the latter provided to aid in installation and for use in the event of a power failure (when using the "unlocking by solenoid" model).

Each unit is supplied with a cord grip and a cap to seal the unused key entry port in the solenoid-latching mechanism.

Features & Benefits:

• Compact design … only 1.25" ×2.375" ×3.5625". Ideal where space is limited.

Series 4000 pressure switches convert a pressure signal to an electrical output. In response to a change in pressure, movement of an elastomeric diaphragm opens or closes an electrical circuit based on a predetermined pressure set point. The Series 4000 features cost effective, snap-acting electrical switches and field adjustable set points with a visual scale for easy set point selection. Pressure ranges as low as 2" (500 Pa) Water Column (W.C.)* up to 11 PSI (76 kPa) are available. Series 4000 switches assure control stability through wide and variable temperature and humidity conditions and assure uninterrupted service under extreme shock and vibration. As with all Tecmark® products, series 4000 switches provide superior performance and 100,000 cycle life under full mechanical, electrical and thermal loads.
