Schmersal 101212247 AZM 161CC-12/03RK-024G – Solenoid Interlock with LEDs, 24 V AC/DC
The Schmersal 101212247 (AZM 161CC-12/03RK-024G) is an electromechanical solenoid interlock from the Schmersal AZM 161 series. It keeps hinged, sliding and removable safety guards locked until hazardous machine movements have stopped. It works on the power-to-unlock principle, so the guard stays locked when the solenoid is de-energised. The guard locking function reaches up to PL e.
Key features of this version:
- Three status LEDs show door closed, solenoid on and door locked at a glance.
- 2,000 N holding force and increased latching force of 30 N.
- Six contacts.
- Double-insulated thermoplastic enclosure, rated IP67.
