Design and function
Design
The safety locking device is a locking unit with a safety locking function. The safety
locking device consists of a safety switch with RFID monitoring and a coded actuator.
Function
The safety locking device is used on a movable physical guard. The safety switch is
located on the frame of the movable physical guard, the actuator on the moving part.
When the movable physical guards closes, the actuator is inserted into the safety
switch. The safety switch reads the code of the actuator. If the code is valid, the safety
locking function can be locked via a signal. The movable physical guard is held closed.
