Schmersal AZM 170 Series Solenoid Interlock Switch, Power to Lock, 24V ac/dc

Need guards or gates to be securely locked while dangerous processes are in operation? This Schmersal solenoid interlock switch will do the job. It senses the position of a magnetic actuator to make one electrical NO (normally open) auxiliary contact and break a second NC (normally closed) safety connection. It has a voltage rating of 24V AC/DC, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The switch has an IP67 (ingress protection) rating, so you can confidently use it in challenging industrial environments.

• Operational temperature range of -25°C to +60°C for use in a wide range of applications
• Double-insulated thermoplastic enclosure that's self-extinguishing in the event of fire
• High holding force of 30N gives prevents accidental opening of panels and doors

• Security systems
• Machine access panels
• Assembly lines

An IDC (insulation-displacement contact) is an electrical connector that connects to the conductors of an insulated cable by forcing selectively sharpened blades through the insulation. This means there's no need to strip the wires before connecting them.
