Description
500V/500VA
The Trojan family is a universal tongue (or key) actuated safety
interlock switch designed to fit at the leading edge of sliding, hinged or
lift-off guards. The dual key entry slots and rotatable head, movable
only by releasing the cover screws, allow four actuator entry options.
The Trojan contains all of the safety related functions—i.e., forced
guided contacts, tamper resistant mechanism—allowing the machine
to be safeguarded in compliance with the machine directive.

Operation of the switch is achieved through the insertion of a
specially profiled stainless steel key that is permanently mounted to
the leading edge of the guard door. The Trojan actuator includes a
self-ejecting mechanism that prevents operation of the switch if the
actuator is not mounted to the guard door (e.g., if the operator uses a
spare key).
