HS1T Heavy Duty Locking
Our new HS1T interlock switch provides safety, performance and cost advantages for equipment manufacturers, machinery builders, packaged system designers, robotics implementations and OEMs of all types. The device is suitable for many industries and can serve as the preferred model for many applications.
This interlock switch delivers an industry-leading 5000N of locking force and meets the requirements of ISO 14119:203 for Lock Monitoring where both the status of the position and the locking function of a protective door can be monitored through the lock monitoring contact.
By using this interlock switch fewer on-board contacts are needed to achieve redundant safety circuits and additional monitoring circuits, reducing the amount of wiring on the device. Installers will also appreciate that the HS1T has multiple available cable entry ports, with faster and more reliable wiring connections made possible by spring clamp terminals. These connections offer excellent vibration resistance, prevent wires from loosening and never need tightening.
Key Features:
Locking force of more than 5000N (40mm-wide slim model)
The head can be rotated to allow the actuator entry direction to be changed easily
• Head rotating structure. Can be roated without removing the head.
• Prevents invalid operation. (On usual interlock switches, the NC contact closes when the head is removed)
Lock status can be identified from the front – Rear unlock mechanical indicator (First in the industry) (*1)
Mechanical indicator function allows the lock status to be easily identified from the front while the rear unlock mechanical indicator is pressed.
Note: Interlock switches with rear unlock mechanical indicator function only.
*1) Based on IDEC research (as of March, 2019).
New Angle adjustable actuator (vertical/horizontal)
New angle adjustable actuators available with retention force of 5000N.
Strength enforced with a metal cover.
Rear and side mount possible.
Energy efficient 200mA solenoid consumption
Because the solenoid current for locking operation is 200mA, the solenoid can be activated without using a relay.
Rear unlocking button
Door lock can be unlocked inside the barrier by a worker left inside a hazardous area.
Spring clamp terminals
Spring clamp terminals offer excellent vibration resistance, preventing wires from loosening. No need for additional tightening.
Side-conduit model
Cables can be connected to the right, left, or bottom (for straight cable orientation) of the terminal cover.
Long marking tubes can be used on the wiring cables.
