Schmersal Solenoid Interlock Switch 230V AC Power to Lock Plastic Housing IP67 AZM 170-11ZRKA 230 VAC

Schmersal AZM 170-11ZRKA 230 VAC solenoid interlock switch is built to enhance safety by preventing accidental machine guard openings during operation with an electromagnetic locking mechanism that powers to lock. This device is suitable for industrial and hazardous environments where operator protection and process continuity are critical.

Featuring a robust plastic, glass-fibre reinforced thermoplastic housing, the switch offers compact dimensions of 30 x 90 x 84 mm, minimizing bulk in control panel setups while providing high protection rated IP67 per IEC/EN 60529 standards, resistant to dust ingress and water submersion up to one meter for 30 minutes.

The switch utilizes normally closed (NC) safety contacts that maintain guard locking even during sudden power interruptions, mitigating risk of injuries. IDC terminals facilitate fast electrical connections, enhancing installation efficiency. A strong clamping force of 1000N ensures that guards and gates remain securely locked during machine operation, maintaining safety compliance with BG, CE, cULus, DIN EN 60269-1, EN 60947-5-1, and EN ISO 13849-1 standards.

This product is engineered to operate within a temperature range from -25 to +60 °C and is widely applicable across harsh industrial environments including hazardous areas, woodworking industries, and automated assembly lines requiring reliable guard protection.

Power to lock function ensures machine guards remain securely locked during machinery operation. Rated IP67 for dust-tight and water immersion protection. Compact dimensions reduce installation space requirements. Durable plastic housing suitable for industrial applications.

Normally closed safety contacts provide secure guarding during power outages. IDC terminals allow quick and reliable electrical connectivity. Strong clamping force of 1000N prevents accidental opening of guards. Wide operating temperature range supports diverse environments.

Actuator type is key; actuator excluded for application flexibility. Standards and approvals include BG, BG-GS-ET-19, CE, cULus, DIN EN 60269-1, EN 60947-5-1, EN ISO 13849-1, and IEC/EN 60529 compliance ensuring safety and quality.
