OMRON TL8012-S1024TM

TL8012-S is a versatile safety interlock switch with guard door locking capability. Its head rotates 180°, providing 4 possible actuator entry points. A distance of 3.0mm or less between the switch face and actuator face is required for locking. The actuator alignment guide is easily replaceable if damaged, providing an ideal mailbox-style function for mounting the switch behind a fixed panel.

• High locking force up to 2000N (450 lbs) to secure guard doors until the machine is safe to access
• NEMA 6 enclosure withstands washdown cleaning
• Door and lock monitoring: TL8012-S features 5 contacts — 2 N/C safety contacts + 1 N/O for door position monitoring, plus 1 N/C + 1 N/O for lock monitoring
• Cover-mounted status indicator illuminates when the solenoid is energized, indicating the solenoid has unlocked the guard door
• Rotatable head provides 4 actuator entry positions for simplified installation
• Optional key release function: available on power-to-unlock models, allowing authorized personnel to manually unlock the guard door in an emergency
• Long service life: TL8012 features various stainless steel actuators and stainless steel guide rails, designed for a minimum of one million operations

Typical applications include sliding and swing guard doors that must remain locked until a signal is applied to the internal solenoid to release the guard. Can also be used with the SR223SMT timer unit for machines with constant overrun, providing a timed delay of the lock/release signal, fail-safe and adjustable from 1.0 to 31 seconds; or with the SR125SMS stop motion sensing unit for machines with non-constant or variable overrun, sensing the back-EMF of AC or DC motors, fail-safe and adjustable from 0.01V to 0.10V.
