Allen Bradley Guardmaster Trojan T15 Safety Switches

The Trojan T15 Safety Interlock Switches improve the safety and security of your machine guard and help to protect personnel by ensuring safe-access to hazardous areas.

These versatile universal interlock switches are tongue or key actuated. They are specifically designed to be fitted at the leading edge of hinged, sliding, and lift-off guard doors. They feature a rugged, compact design with 75 x 52 x 32 mm housing, and they also have a rotatable head which allows 4 actuator entry points.

The T15 units have an actuator retention force of 30N and a tamper-proof mechanism, offering superior stability and reliability. They are ideally suited for wash-down applications as the contacts are sealed to IP67. The GD2 version also has a stainless-steel head for more demanding environments. They are an economic and flexible solution for your guard-locking safety system.

Contacts: 2 N.C. safety or 1 N.C. safety & 1 N.O. auxiliary

What are Safety Interlock Switches?

Safety Interlock Switches are locking devices which can be used to monitor the position of a guard door and turn off the power supply when the safety barrier is released. They can also be used to keep a guard securely locked when machinery is running. This helps to prevent personnel from accessing a hazardous area where machinery may be in motion and minimises risk of injury or equipment damage. Interlock switches are often used for industrial applications.

What is a Safety Interlock Actuator?

The actuator is a separate component which is usually inserted into the switch to enable the locking mechanism to work. It forms a key part of the overall safety interlock unit. Different types include: 90º, Flat, Standard, Semi-Flexible, Fully Flexible, and Specialty.

Rockwell Automation is a global leader in industrial automation and digital transformation, and brings smart manufacturing to life. With a long legacy of creating Allen-Bradley® integrated control and information solutions, we help make you as productive as possible. Our portfolio of sensing, safety and motor control products can support your move towards smart machine applications. Allen-Bradley® IO-Link sensors are data-enabled and communicate with all field buses, providing diagnostic and health information about the device before a machine stops, and enabling quick production changeovers through fast parameter downloads from PLCs into the device. This reduces machine downtime and increases manufacturing OEE. For safety components, products with built-in diagnostics simplify the set-up of the smart device, and reduce maintenance, leading to a more efficient, machine data-driven approach.
