Interlock Switches

Tongue Switches

Trojan 5 & 6

Description

The Trojan family is a universal tongue (or key) actuated safety

interlock switch designed to fit at the leading edge of sliding, hinged or

lift-off guards. The dual key entry slots and rotatable head, movable

only by releasing the cover screws, allow four actuator entry options.

The Trojan contains all of the safety related functions—i.e., forced

guided contacts, tamper resistant mechanism—allowing the machine

to be safeguarded in compliance with the machine directive.

Operation of the switch is achieved through the insertion of a

specially profiled stainless steel key that is permanently mounted to

the leading edge of the guard door. The Trojan actuator includes a

self-ejecting mechanism that prevents operation of the switch if the

actuator is not mounted to the guard door (e.g., if the operator uses a

spare key).

The Trojan 6 is available with either 4 N.C. safety contacts, 3 N.C.

safety contacts and 1 N.O. auxiliary contact or 2 N.C. safety contacts

and 2 N.O. auxiliary contacts. The unit is sealed to IP67 and has three

M20 conduit entries.

Features

• Strong and versatile, can be used in most applications

• Self-ejecting tamper resistant actuator, only operates when

mounted to the guard

• Four possible actuator entry points, easy to install

• GD2 style available for demanding applications

• Conforms to EN1088, EN292, EN60947-5-1, EN60204-1
