Overview

The ABB MKey Mechanical Safety Switch, SKU 2TLA050040R0613, is engineered for reliable monitoring of industrial doors, hatches, and guards. This safety interlock switch ensures machinery is safely stopped when guards are open, adhering to stringent safety standards. All MKey models feature a safe interlocking function, preventing hazardous operations until the guard is secured. Available in various configurations, including models with NPT conduit entries and different actuator keys, these switches offer flexibility for diverse applications. The MKEY4 series, for instance, features a rugged polyester housing and head, providing a degree of protection rated at IP67. These units are equipped with 2 Normally Closed (NC) and 1 Normally Open (NO) contact outputs, suitable for integration into safety circuits. The holding force is rated at 12N when the actuator is inserted. Specific models like the MKEY4 (Catalog No. 2TLA050001R1400) are delivered with a metal flex key and offer three 1/2" NPT conduit entries. The MKEY4 (Catalog No. 2TLA050001R1100) comes with a standard key and also features three 1/2" NPT conduit entries. The MKEY5 series, such as the MKEY5, NPT, 2NC/1NO MET. FLEX KEY (Catalog No. 2TLA050003R1400), continues this robust construction. These switches achieve a Performance Level of up to 'e', making them suitable for critical safety functions. Dimensions for these models are consistent: Product Net Depth/Length is 34 mm, Height is 86 mm, and Width is 54 mm, with a Net Weight of 0.299 kg. The MKey switches are classified under ETIM 6.0/7.0/8.0 as EC002592 - Position switch with separate actuator, and under ETIM 4.0/5.0 as EC002593 - Position switch with interlocking.
