This actuator from Schmersal is used in safety switches to protect electrical circuits in industrial machinery from dangerous overloads. Once the actuator turns the switch from on to off, it breaks the circuit to prevent electric shock hazards and damage to machinery. The unit inserts securely into the centre of the safety switch and can be removed for cleaning to ensure optimal performance. It's compatible with AZM 161 safety switches, making it simple to assemble a complete switch system.

• Interlock design prevents damage due to incorrect locking
• Stainless steel body is durable and corrosion-resistant for use in harsh environments
• Thin, straight construction maximises airflow in safety switch to reduce heat buildups
• ATEX hazardous area certification means it's safe to use in explosive environments

• Printing presses
• Articulated robotics
• Factory automation
• Packaging conveyors

This actuator has a light weight of 23g, so it places minimal strain on the switch.

This actuator has a minimum actuating radius of 150mm, which makes it suitable for use in confined areas.
