The Safer Switch for Safety Interlocks

All GuardSwitches are non-contact, magnetic devices consisting of a switch and a magnet actuator. They are extremely tolerant of misalignment and the build-up of dirt, grease and other contaminants. The typical air gap between actuator and switch is 0.5" to 1.0". This allows easy installation and a margin for the usual "settling out" shift that occurs in machine guard doors and gates.

GuardSwitches actuate through wood, aluminum, stainless steel or any other nonferrous material. This allows the interlock switches to be concealed in the machine for added protection against tampering. In addition, all switching elements are hermetically sealed, so they can be installed in dirty or corrosive environments.

The 300-BT Series non-contact GuardSwitches offer superior defeat resistance, ease of installation and are "CE" and Semi S2 compliant when used with our INT Safety Monitor Relays.

Edwards also has a complete line of mechanical safety interlock switches which include key-operated, solenoid release, rope pulls, hinged and slotted. All mechanical switches are positive opening and "CE" compliant.

Edwards has safety switches to meet all applications and they comply with published standards.

Edwards position sensors have earned their reputation for quality. They are built for durability and dependability. Most are conservatively rated at 100,000 cycles under full load and 10,000,000 cycles under dry circuit. Every reed connection is hand soldered and the reeds in all modes are environmentally sealed.

1085T
Screw Terminal
1085T
Designed to make installation easier, these position sensors have earned their reputation for quality. They are built for durability and dependability. Most are conservatively rated at 100,000 cycles under full load, and 10,000,000 cycles under dry circuit. Every reed connections is hand soldered and the reeds in all models are environmentally sealed. Like the GuardSwitch safety interlock switches, our position sensors are tested before they leave the factory - 100% of the time.
2205 Series
Overhead Door Floor Mount Magnetic Contact
2205 Series
The 2205A-L overhead door magnetic contact is designed for use in environments where a heavy-duty unit is required. the floor mount units are constructed using a rugged low-profile extruded aluminum switch housing and a cast aluminum magnet housing. The reed switch assembly is fully encased in GE Security's exclusive polyurethane potting material to prevent damage due to moisture or humidity. A wide operating gap of up to 3 inches makes installation easy and helps prevent false alarms caused by loose-fitting doors. The contacts are available with a universal-style magnet that allows for greater installation flexibility.
