<p>The AZM170 Safety Interlock Switch is a robust solution designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial and commercial environments. Engineered with precision, this switch ensures operational safety by preventing accidental machine start-ups during maintenance or access scenarios.</p><p>Operating at a rated voltage of 24 VAC/VDC and capable of handling a current up to 1000 A, the AZM170 provides reliable performance across various applications. It delivers an impressive rated power of 12 W, making it suitable for energy-efficient systems without compromising on functionality.</p><p>The switch features a normally closed (NC) contact configuration, ideal for safety circuits where interruption must occur in case of system failure. With its slow action mechanism, the device ensures deliberate engagement and disengagement, enhancing control over operations.</p><p>Constructed from glass fibre reinforced thermoplastic plastic, the housing material offers durability while maintaining lightweight properties. This enhances ease of installation and longevity even in challenging conditions. The switch boasts an IP67 degree of protection, ensuring dust-tight sealing and resistance against water immersion up to 1 meter depth for limited periods—a critical feature for harsh industrial settings.</p><p>Designed to withstand mechanical wear, the AZM170 promises an impressive mechanical life span reaching up to one million cycles. This durability translates into reduced maintenance needs and longer service intervals—key factors in minimizing downtime.</p><p>Functionality remains uncompromised across temperatures ranging from -25&#176;C to 60&#176;C. This wide operational temperature range makes it suitable for diverse climates found across Australia—from cooler southern regions to warmer northern areas.</p><p>The interlock switch adheres strictly to international standards including IFA, cULus, CCC, and UKCA approvals—providing assurance that it meets stringent global safety requirements.</p><p>With an actuating speed of 2 m/s and force requirements at only 17 N for actuation along with a rated force at 5 N—the device is efficient yet sensitive enough for precise operation within automated systems or machinery safeguards.</p><p>Measuring at dimensions of 30 mm length x 110 mm width x 84 mm height—the compact size allows easy integration into existing setups without demanding extensive space alterations. The silver contact material further ensures excellent conductivity necessary for consistent electrical performance over time.</p><p>In summary—the AZM170 Safety Interlock Switch combines reliability with efficiency through thoughtful engineering tailored towards secure operations in varied industrial landscapes—making it an indispensable component within any comprehensive safety strategy.</p>
