The GATE GARD ® Limit Switch is designed to detect that press gates or machine doors are closed before a machine is allowed to cycle.
The Gate Gard™ switch is a solid state self-contained limit switch which detects the unique signature of its mating key. The passive key activates the switch without physical contact, allowing the key to approach from almost any angle. Switch to key alignment is non-critical. When properly aligned, the system allows up to a 0.25 inch key-to-switch gap.
