Frequently Answers and Questions

What is the purpose of the auxiliary release?

The auxiliary release is a safety feature that allows you to open a locked guard door from outside the safeguarded area in emergency situations. It is intended for infrequent use only, such as when there is a power outage and an emergency release is unavailable. Refer to the viewed document for more information on auxiliary release operation.

How do I connect a 440G-MZ switch to a GuardLink system?

You can connect the 440G-MZ switch to a GuardLink system using a passive tap (440S-PF5D) or a passive power tap (440S-PF5D4). Refer to Figure 14 in the viewed document for a diagram of this connection.

What are the minimum distance requirements between switches?

To prevent electromagnetic interference, a minimum distance of 100 mm (3.94 in) must be maintained between any pair of Guardmaster safety switches that use RFID sensing technology, including 440N-Z SensaGuard interlocks, TLS-Z, and 440G-LZ guard locking switches. Refer to Figure 5 in the viewed document for a visual representation of this requirement.
