Schmersal Actuator for Use with AZM 161 Safety Switch Stainless Steel Material Germany AZM 161-B1E

Schmersal AZM 161-B1E actuator is engineered primarily for use with the AZM 161 Safety Switch, providing a secure and reliable means of preventing accidental access to hazardous factory areas. Manufactured from robust stainless steel, it delivers excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, suitable for demanding industrial settings. The actuator's thermoplastic handle ensures resistance to wear, contributing to long service life.

This actuator boasts a strong latching force of 30N to improve the safety and security of sliding safety doors and similar installations. Its lightweight design, weighing approximately 29.3 grams, reduces the mechanical load on mounting surfaces, enhancing stability and ease of installation. With an actuating play of 5.5 mm, the actuator performs reliable engagement within the safety switch system.

Manufactured in Germany, it comes equipped with tamper-proof screws to prevent unauthorized removal, thus enhancing workplace safety. Notably, this actuator is exclusively compatible with the AZM 161 solenoid interlock safety switch and must not be used with other safety switch models.

Constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance. Thermoplastic handle ensures durability against wear. 30N latching force for improved security. Lightweight at 29.3 grams reduces mounting strain. 5.5 mm actuating play for precise operation.

Comes with tamper-proof screws for safety. Designed exclusively for AZM 161 safety switch. Applicable in food, chemical, and medical sectors.

This actuator is suitable for industrial, manufacturing, food and beverage, chemical processing, and healthcare environments where safety interlock systems are critical for operator protection. It meets IEC/EN60947-5-1 standards and certifications from BG, UL, and CSA, with safety compliance ensured when used as a complete system together with the AZM161 safety sensor, magnet (AZM), and safety monitoring module (AES).

For additional safety features, accessories such as M5 release keys are available. However, the actuator’s manual release function is intended for emergencies where power failure occurs.
