Schmersal ATEX EX- Safety Interlock Switch, Keyed Lock Style, Fibreglass Reinforced Thermoplastic Housing, IP67 Rated AZ16

Schmersal EX-AZ 16-03ZVRK-3D is an ATEX certified Safety Interlock Switch designed for restricting access to hazardous or dangerous machinery and equipment across industrial, metalworking, construction, and manufacturing environments. This switch utilizes a keyed lock style interlock system with a robust fibreglass reinforced thermoplastic housing that provides superior impact resistance and durability. Compact dimensions of 90mm length, 52mm width, and 30mm depth enable installation within limited space constraints.

Engineered for demanding conditions, it operates reliably over a temperature range of -20°C to +70°C and has an IP67 rating for waterproofing that allows safe use even under temporary submersion up to one meter for 30 minutes. It features one normally open safety contact capable of switching 2.5A at 230V AC, and includes one auxiliary contact for additional control functions.

The switch incorporates a screw termination system ensuring secure and convenient wiring without requiring specialized tools. The model supports three head directions for versatile mounting options and features a patented roller system providing reliability even in dirty or harsh environments. Compliance with IEC 60947-5-1 and IEC 61241-1 standards reinforces its industrial-grade safety credentials.

Typical applications include metalworking machinery safety, industrial machines requiring controlled access, and construction sites where personnel protection is vital. The switch’s ATEX certification ensures suitability for hazardous area installations where explosion risk must be mitigated.
