Hygienic mounting

The HGL safe door locking system is supplied with stainless steel mounting sleeves, which allow for distance from the mounting surface for better cleaning.

All materials are suitable for withstanding chemical cleaning and guarantee a high protection class (IP67 and IP69K0).

3-A Certification

The HGL has an open design for easy cleaning that minimises the risk of bacterial growth.

By choosing a polished full stainless steel 316 housing and PBT seals, this safety interlock is ideal for use in the food production and pharmaceutical industries.

High-coded

Because the HGL safe stainless steel door lock is equipped with a high coded RFID safety switch, it can be used as a high coded interlock according to EN 14119.

Flexible operating tongue

The ball-shaped actuator/operator tongue of the HGL safety interlock is flexible and allows installation even on poorly aligned doors or shutters.

With a maximum locking force of 7500N, it is suitable for the harshest industrial conditions.

OSSD contacts

HGL hygienic stainless steel safety switches are equipped with OSSD contacts and 2 pieces of M12 5-pin plug connectors, so that they can easily be placed in series (daisy-chain) without the loss of the safety function.
