Castell Safety - - a Halma Company products

The Olympus 4HD is a heavy duty solenoid controlled access lock available with either a stainless steel tongue actuator or a heavy duty bolt assembly. The Olympus 4HD is capable of supporting Category 4 safety systems through its 2n/c 1n/o contacts and is ideal for all types of hinging or sliding access points with a good tolerance for misaligned guarding. The unit is locked by the solenoid when it is de-energized and opened when energized. A mechanical key override facility for the solenoid comes standard. The Olympus 4HD is ideal for use on production cells and automated production and assembly lines where fast access is required.

The MSI is designed to control access to rotating machinery that has a run-down time. The MSI relies on the detection of motion via two sensors. Only when both sensors detect zero movement can the key be released. The MSI has been designed to provide the highest level of safety when installed as part of an access control system for dangerous machinery.

The Castell MBV modular ball valve interlock is designed to enable locking off, in either the open, closed or both open and closed conditions. The MBV is suitable for any quarter-turn valves including Ball, Plug and Butterfly Valves up to 3” bore size. Fitting the MBV enforces a logical, predetermined and safe sequence of operation where the control of flow paths is critical. The MBV is manufactured in stainless steel with stainless steel lock portions.

The AIE dual key access interlock is suitable for use on hinged and sliding doors. The interlock has an open cavity design and is manufactured in an aluminum alloy or durable stainless steel. The AIE is available in two options: exchange key and double key.

The AIES is a dual key access interlock complete with electrical contacts for use on hinged or sliding doors. The AIES contacts can be used to switch off the machine via its control circuitry or to initialise a signal to visual beacons/sounders. The switch is sealed to IP65 with 1N/O 2N/C contacts, it is rated to 10 amps making it ideal for use in cross monitored safety systems. The interlock is manufactured in a durable stainless steel.

A selection of keys is available to suit a range of applications, from the basic nickel plated key to the stainless steel sealing key. The FS range of keys fit the figure symbol lock type whilst the Q range fits the Q lock type.

The Castell protective cap is used to help prevent dust ingress into the lock portion. The cap can easily be fitted to existing Castell locks. In addition, the cap can be also padlocked closed to prevent lock operation during maintenance.

The KSD is a key driven non fused switch disconnector for the isolation or switching of currents. The standard KSD comes with 4 or 6 poles plus 2 auxiliary early break contacts. The KSD is manufactured from either brass or stainless steel. The unit is supplied suitable for mounting into an existing panel or for surface mounting within its own IP65 rated lockable mild steel enclosure.

The KSSE is a solenoid controlled, multi-key electrical switch for the controlled isolation of low current. This product is used where the controlled isolation of a machine needs to take place, i.e. where a robot has to finish a cycle prior to isolation and where multiple entry points to the protected area are required. The solenoid is continuously rated, and its position is electrically monitored. This type of isolator should be used for short term, off load isolation. The unit is supplied capable of being mounted into an existing panel or for surface mounting within its own IP65 rated lockable steel enclosure. The KSSE is manufactured from either brass or stainless steel.
