GE Security Industrial - Applications

GE Security Industrial’s safety interlock switches are used in all types of machinery to safeguard access panels covering different types of power transmission apparatus. A broad line of switch types are available to meet virtually all customer mounting requirements.

If panels protecting belts, pulleys, gears, cables or other moving parts do not require tools for access, they must be interlocked. In many cases, the 115, 151, and 301 series interlock switches can be used for these applications, which may include:

Point of contact between a power transmission belt and pulley
Chain and sprocket
Rack and pinion

However, risk factor and severity of injury must be considered when choosing interlock switches. Rotating motion, mechanisms and parts can be dangerous, causing severe injuries. If risk factors and regulatory standards require safety switches, then GE Security Industrial offers a safety system, using the 300-BT Series switches and the INT Series safety monitor relay, and full line of mechanical safety interlock switches. Application examples may include:

Collars
Clutches
Couplings
Spindles
Cams
Flywheels
Horizontal and Vertical Shafts
