SICK flexLOCK Safety Switches
RFID-monitored safety locking device with 180° actuation radius
The flexLock safety locking device with RFID monitoring is characterized by an infinitely variable actuation radius of 180°. It thus offers a high level of flexibility for the safety locking function of doors and flaps – even with small door radii. The clearly visible LEDs show the device status continuously at all viewing angles. The open locking head and the rounded housing of the flexLock allow for easy cleaning. In addition, the high offset tolerance ensures easy mounting and high system availability, even when the door is lowered. Variants for personal or process protection are well suited for use in a wide range of applications up to PL e. The optional escape release allows the locking device to be unlocked from the hazardous area.
- Makes machine integration easier thanks to the flexible entry point of the actuator into the locking head − even for applications with small door radii
- Provides high manipulation protection at a high coding level
- Saves you time and money when cleaning the housing, making it particularly well-suited for use in dirty environments
- Ensures a high level of safety thanks to PL e and high locking force
- Makes mounting easy and offers you a high machine availability thanks to offset tolerance
- Able to be used in hazardous areas that are not fully visible thanks to escape release
- Innovative design: Open locking head with 180° actuation radius, rounded housing, bright LEDs (visible from three sides)
- PL e for door and locking monitoring with low or high coding
- IP67 and IP69K enclosure rating
- High locking force: Up to 3150 N
- Flexible actuator for high offset tolerance
Flexible 180° approach
The flexLock safety locking device will impress you with its innovative rounded housing design and, thanks to the infinitely variable actuation radius of 180°, is suitable even for small door radii. The short minimum distance between multiple devices also allows fast machine integration.
Flexibility of the switch and actuator - makes your machine integration easier
Economical time savings
Less malfunctions, less downtimes, short maintenance cycles – even under challenging ambient conditions with high hygiene standards. With flexLock, you will experience a product that can withstand contamination, door sagging or frequent cleaning.
No disturbances from external influences - a win for your machine availability.
Access reliably monitored
flexLock achieves a high level of safety for door and locking monitoring thanks to its performance level e rating. Benefit from the high coding level of the actuator with RFID technology and thereby save the time and expense of additional measures for manipulation protection.
