Using built-inmicroprocessor technology and two channel OSSD solid-stateoutputs, these switches operate using a logic-level signal input.The RFID door target is uniquely coded and provides theinternal microprocessor with additional door positioninformation. This device can be used in a guard locking systemto achieve PLe, Cat 4 and SIL 3.• RFID unique (high) coded door target• Power-to-Release (safety of people) and Power-to-Lock (protection of machine production) versions available• Solid-state OSSD outputs allow the switch to be connected in series with other devices while maintaining safety ratings• Meets EN/ISO 14119:2013, EN/ISO 13849-1 and EN 62061• PLe, Cat 4 and SIL 3 for guard position and lock monitoringTÜV certification to the new rigorousEN/ISO 14119:2013 and EN/ISO 13849-1standards for achieving Performance Level “e”,Cat 4 — the highest level of safety for guardposition and lock monitoring.440G-LZThe Allen-Bradley Guardmaster 440G-LZ fromRockwell Automation is a guard locking switch designedfor partial body access guards. Combining microprocessortechnology with an RFID coded actuator, the 440G-LZfeatures a locking bolt drive mechanism that will only lockwhen the correct actuator is detected. The locking bolt iscontinuously monitored for correct insertion within theactuator. This extra functionality allows the 440G-LZ to becertified PLe, Cat 4 , SIL 3 – the highest level of safety for guardposition and lock monitoring – and it can be connected directlyor in series with other PLe, Cat 4, or SIL 3 rated safety devices.The 440G-LZ runs“cool”and has low power (2.5 W) consumptiondue to its bi-stable solenoid and built-in energy storage.The 440G-LZ consumes up to 60% less energy when comparedto other guard locking switches, making it a truly‘green’safetysolution. It achieves this level of energy efficiency thanks toadvanced algorithms and a bi-stable solenoid design thatconsumes little power for switching, regardless of whether it isin the locked or unlocked state.440G-LZ Features• TÜV certified to PLe, Cat 4 per EN/ISO 13849-1, SIL 3 per EN 62061 and EN/ISO 14119:2013• Uses up to 60% less power than competitive products• RFID unique (high) or standard (low) coded actuators provide application flexibility• High holding force (Fzh) per EN/ISO 14119:2013• Power-to-Release (safety of people) and Power-to-Lock (protection of machine production) versions available• IP69K washdown rating• Compact 45 mm housing with four actuator positions for flexibility of mountingBright 270 degree wrap-aroundLEDs provide status and smart localdiagnostics
