discrete, installation on the narrowest of machine guard rails. It requires no mounting plate. Tested to IP67 and IP69K, and suitable for SIP and
CIP cleaning, the MLZ is robust enough for outdoor use as well as for strict washdown environments. The device’s smooth surface and rounded edges make cleaning easier, reducing the likelihood of bacteria build-up which makes it an ideal locking switch solution for food contact, beverage, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
IDEM MLZ Locking Switch
IDEM safety has engineered what it describes as the world’s smallest safety interlock in mirror polished 316 stainless-steel, suitable for hygienic environments. the MlZ features a flexible rFID type 4 coded actuator and ossD outputs for series connection. At just 30mm x 30mm x 145mm, the MLZ is a solenoid-controlled safety device designed for easy,
Powerful locking caPability Despite its small size, this innovative safety switch is incredibly durable and strong, with an impressive holding force of 4000N when locked. The MLZ can easily handle medium to large scale guarding applications. For heavier guards it comes with an adjustable ball catch, allowing the user to quickly and easily adjust the latching force on installation to match the guard’s requirements. A rear escape button for exiting a safeguarded area when the access door is locked is also available as an option.
Versatility designed-in The MLZ features a unique head and actuator design with RFID coded sensing on three switch faces, making it flexible enough to be integrated onto almost any type of machine guard door. It is compatible with both

sliding and hinged guards. As well as being quick to install, intuitive LED indicators make fault diagnosis simple to identify.
connectiVity for high-leVel safety To achieve an even higher level of safety across multiple machine guards, the MLZ can be connected in series for up to 30 devices, maintaining CAT4, SIL3, PLe and and meets the requirements for Type 4 coding in accordance with EN ISO 14119. With OSSD technology, wiring is simple, reducing the number of outputs down to a single pair back to the safety controller. The MLZ is an addition to IDEM’s established
Z-Range of safety switches which cater for a variety of machine safety applications, each of which is capable of interconnectivity. The range also includes the compact MMZ (stainless steel) and MPZ (plastic) RFID safety switches for monitoring doors, gates and other moveable safeguards demanding a high degree of
manipulation protection.
