Schmersal 101195749 AZM 161CC-12/12RKAN-110/230-1637 – Solenoid Interlock with Emergency Release and Gold-Plated Contacts
The Schmersal 101195749 (AZM 161CC-12/12RKAN- 110/230-1637) is an electromechanical solenoid interlock from the Schmersal AZM 161 series. It keeps hinged, sliding and removable guards locked during critical machine or process steps.
What sets this variant apart:
- Power to lock: the guard is locked only while the solenoid is energised.
- Solenoid voltage: 110/230 V AC.
- Emergency release: a rotating unlatcher, mounted outside the guarded area.
- Gold-plated contacts (-1637): reliable switching of low-level signals.
- Locking and contacts: 2,000 N holding force, an increased latching force of 30 N, and six contacts (four safety contacts and two auxiliary contacts).

Typical Applications
- Process protection on machines with an AC control circuit (110 V or 230 V)
- Guards that must be unlockable from outside during service or a fault
- Signal contacts wired directly to PLC inputs or other low-current electronics
- Direct replacement of AZM 161CC-12/12RKAN-110/230-1637 units in existing machines
Note: the actuator is ordered separately. With the power-to-lock principle, the guard can be opened immediately after a power failure. Schmersal states these interlocks may only be used for personnel protection in special cases, after a thorough evaluation of the accident risk.
