The guard may only be opened when a signal is applied to the TLS-GD2's internal solenoid which releases the lock mechanism. This signal can be via CU1 Electronic Timer Relays or CU2 Stopped Motion Detectors. Therefore the TLS-GD2 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 TLS-GD2 is available in three types. Three manual release points with security screws allow the locked TSL-GD2 to be released in emergencies.
All types have five sets of contacts in various forms and are suitable for use with PLCs.
A stainless steel actuator guide is fitted to protect the unit from actuator damage due to poor guard alignment or guard wear. With the 'power to lock' version, provisions may be required to ensure that a dangerous situation can not result from open circuit faults or power cuts. All rights reserved.
