Release Protective Cover Locks Using
Controller Signals or Pushbutton Switches
after the Cutting Tool Stops Moving Due to
Inertia
• A mechanical lock is applied automatically when the Operation
Key is inserted. A high level of safety is achieved using a
mechanism where the lock is only released when voltage is
applied to the solenoid.
• Conforms to EN (TÜV) standards corresponding to the CE
marking.
• Approved by UL, CSA, BIA, SUVA and CCC standards.
• The Switch contact is opened by a direct opening mechanism
(NC contacts only) when the protective cover is opened. Direct
opening mechanism that is EN-approved is indicated by on
the Switch.
• Auxiliary release key ensures easy maintenance and unlocks
the door in the case of a power failure.
• Tough aluminum die-cast body incorporating a switch box with
degree of protection satisfying IP67, UL, and CSA TYPE6P, 13.
• Equipped with a horizontal and vertical conduit opening.
• Models incorporating easy-to-see indicators for monitoring and
those using an adjustable Operation Key for a double door are
available.
• The mounting direction of the head can be changed to allow the
Operation Key to be inserted from four directions.
Note: Be sure to read the “Safety Precautions” on page A-78 and the
“Precautions for All Safety Door Switches” on page A-2.
Note: Ask your OMRON representative for information on approved
models.

Note: 1. The above values are initial values.
2. The degree of protection is tested using the method specified by the standard (EN60947-5-1). Confirm that sealing properties are
sufficient for the operating conditions and environment beforehand. Although the switch box is protected from dust, oil or water
penetration, do not use the D4BL in places where dust, oil, water, or chemicals may enter through the key hole on the head, otherwise
Switch damage or malfunctioning may occur.
