The Guardmaster 440G-LZ Switch saving lives, saving power and improving productivity

The next Generation Guard locking switch 440G-LZ from Allen-Bradley Guardmaster is a light duty guard locking switch designed for partial body access guard doors. Combining microprocessor technology with an RFID coded actuator, the 440G-LZ features a locking bolt drive mechanism that will only lock when the correct actuator is detected. The locking bolt is continuously monitored for correct insertion within the actuator. This extra functionality allows the 440G-LZ to be certified to PLe, Cat. 4 -- the highest level of safety for guard door position and lock monitoring and can be connected directly or in series with other PLe, Cat. 4 rated safety devices. Designed to ISO 14119.

While the 440G-LZ provides this high safety performance level it consumes 60% less energy when compared to other guard locking switches, making it a truly "green" safety solution. It achieves this level of energy efficiency thanks to advanced algorithms and a bi-stable solenoid design that consumes little power for switching, regardless of whether it’s in the locked or unlocked state.

Typical applications include: Protection of personnel and protection of machine production 'up time'.

The Guardmaster 440G-LZ is designed for small form factor solenoid guard locking application requirements mainly in the Food & Bev, and Packaging industries.
