 Articulated Actuator Locking Type Only

The GS Series locking type models

Bolt structure
provide a level of flexibility that is
unmatched by other locking type
interlocks on the market. Not only do
they feature a fully articulated
locking bolt, but they also offer
beveled entry points to ensure
mating even as a door sags.

Simplified Wiring Through Cascading

Wiring has never been simpler or

Locking Type Non-Contact Type
easier than with the GS Series and its
built-in cascading function. Connect
together safety interlocks throughout
the machine and cut the total OSSD1/2 OSSD1/2
number of safety outputs down to a (Safety (Safety

Cascade: Cascade:
Up to 25 units Up to 30 units

 Additional I/O for Monitoring

Even when several units are

cascaded together, it is possible to
quickly identify which access point is
open using an additional auxiliary
output from each safety interlock.
These outputs can be tied to a PLC,
HMI, light, etc. to easily identify the
open access point.

No Additional Relay Necessary

The GS Series enables all-in-one

safety wiring by utilizing two OSSD
Direct connection
safety outputs along with EDM and
manual reset built into specific
models. This eliminates the need for a
dedicated safety interlock relay or
control box, as these GS models can
be wired directly to a safety circuit.

GS Series Dedicated External device

(OSSD equipped) controller (e.g. contactor)

E-Stop Compatible

Reduce wiring even further by

integrating E-Stops into your safety
interlock system. Specific GS models
offer safety inputs that can be used
to place E-Stops directly in series with
the safety interlocks. This helps to
further reduce wiring while
maintaining safety.

 ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Dedicated Handle Locking Type Only

The GS-Series offers a dedicated

LOCKED OPEN
handle for the locking type safety
interlocks. This sturdy two-action
handle is great for new builds or
machine redesigns, and provides a
complete solution for access point
entry and locking.

The rugged design prevent tampering Simply squeeze and slide to open

Escape Release Locking Type Only

In the event that an operator finds

themselves stuck inside of a
hazardous area, the escape release
can be used to effortlessly open a
locked access point and disable
power to the hazardous machinery.
* M12 Connector type only

Highly visible and intuitive design Clear markings indicate current situation

Flexible Unit Coding

The GS Series offers two levels of

Locking Type Non-Contact Type
actuator coding. On LOW, the unit will
recognize any GS actuator that it
encounters. On HIGH, the unit can be
NG OK NG NG OK NG
set to only recognize one specific
actuator to prevent tampering or
confusion.
