440G-S36001

The Spartan 440G-S36001 is a positive mode, tongue operated guard locking interlock switch that locks a machine guard closed until power is isolated and ensures that it remains isolated while the guard is open. 440G-S36001 is available in two contact configurations: two safety (N.C.) contacts and one auxiliary (N.O.) contact or three safety (N.C.) contacts. The 440G-S36001 head has two entry slots and it can be rotated to provide four actuator entry points.

A blanking plug of the 440G-S36001 is provided to seal the unused slot. The guard may only be opened when a signal is applied to the Spartan's internal solenoid which releases the lock mechanism. Therefore the 440G-S36001 is ideal for machines which do not stop immediately or where premature interruption of the machine could cause damage to tooling and components or cause an additional hazard.

The locking mechanism of the 440G-S36001 withstands forces up to of 1200N (270lbs.) and an LED provides visual indication of switch status. A catch kit with actuator alignment is also supplied to relieve stress on the locking solenoid and to protect the unit from actuator damage due to poor guard alignment. Manual release points with security screws or special key allow the locked Spartan to be released in the event of total power failure on a machine.
