Application
A typical application of KSSE multi key solenoid controleld
switch is machine guarding. It is usually used in combination
with an access interlock such as the Salus for part body
access or an AIE access interlock with an exchange key for
full body access control.
The KSS breaks the machine safety circuit, ensuring a
machine is shut down once the isolation key is inserted
and turned into the unit. Once the machine has completed
the cycle, an external signal is received by the solenoid,
which is indicated by an illuminated LED. Activating the
green button on the KSSE will enable the personnel keys to
be turned and removed ensuring the power is locked out.
The keys can then be taken to the AIE double key access
interlocks to enable access to the machine.
The machine cannot be restarted until all doors are closed,
and all personnel keys returned to the KSSE multi key
solenoid controlled switch.
