Movable guards such as swing gates and sliding gates, flaps or covers, can be found in almost every application. If there are dangerous overrun movements, a safety locking device with appropriate manipulation protection in accordance with EN ISO 14119 is required. The safety gate cannot be opened until all hazardous machine movements are stopped. A restart is not possible until the safety gate is closed and locked. It must not be possible to either defeat or manipulate the safeguards. Pilz safety switches with guard locking offer the right solution for both process and personnel protection – for safe, productive working. http://www.pilz.com
Discover everything you need to know about the new safety locking devices at the Hannover Messe. Of course we will also be showcasing the two new sensors: The new PSENmlock mini for space-critical applications, such as flaps or covers, and the new generation PSENslock 2 with a new design for robust applications. Why not arrange a consultation with our experts directly at the exhibition to discuss your specific project. Is it an accessible or a non-accessible safeguard? Accessible safeguards are generally larger swing and sliding gates; non-accessible safeguards are covers or flaps, for example. http://www.pilz.com
The question regarding the type of guard locking depends on the stopping time. If the time to reach the danger zone is longer than the stopping time, process guarding is sufficient. If the intervention time is shorter than the stopping time, however, safe guard locking (personnel protection) is required.
