Compact, RFID high coded interlocks for safe access to machinery providing the highest level of safety up to Cat 4, SIL 3, PLe. For guard locking use Atom and for non contact gate switches use FRNK.
In line with guidance in ISO 14119, our compact solutions have high coded, uniquely paired actuators to reduce the possibility of defeat, their compact size and multiple mounting orientations make them simple to mount out of reach for further peace of mind. Designed for ease of install, they come pre-wired with quick disconnects and require just 2 mounting points each on the device and the actuator.
Atom – compact guard locking:
Guards which drop or become misaligned or even very tight spaces are no problem for the Atom. The clever tongue design has very high misalignement capability which works down to hatches as small as 150mm opening radius. Suitable for harsh environments due to open head meaning dust and dirt is pushed out of the unit during operation and means it is easy to maintain. OSSD dual channel safety channels with internal fault detection mean the devices can be daisy chained together to minimise wiring while retaining maximum risk reduction. A handy LED on the device shows what state the device is in, guard open, guard closed or a fault.
Atom can be easily rotated for installation in all different orientations with just two fixings on the interlock.
The Atom actuator can be combined with Fortress’ unique mounting kits for a variety of ergonomic access solutions.
Robust design results in a single device being required to achieve the highest safety performance levels.
Range of pre-wired connector options.
3rd party approved for applications requiring high reliability.
Suitable for applications up to SIL3 Cat.4 PLe
24V control voltage
Variants offered in robust metal alloy enclosures
Hosts Over 4,000,000,000 unique codes to prevent interlock defeat
