General Description
Chapter 1
Guardmaster 440G-LZ
Overview
This Guardmaster 440G-LZ guard locking switch functions by extending a
locking bolt from the switch through a hole in the actuator, thus
preventing the opening of a guard.
The locking bolt drive mechanism and logic ensure that the locking bolt
is allowed to extend only when the corresponding actuator is detected
within range.
The appropriate actuator is detected by RFID coding.
This version of the Guardmaster 440G-LC guard locking switch features
OSSD outputs that are enabled only when the locking bolt is sensed in its
extended position in the actuator, which happens only when the guard is
both closed and locked.
The locking bolt drive mechanism uses a bi-stable solenoid; as a result,
the switch consumes very little electrical power, with peak currents
occurring only briefly, upon start-up and after each movement of the
locking bolt.
Because of its bi-stable drive, not only does the device consume minimal
power, but it does not produce heat whether in its locked or unlocked
condition.
Despite the bi-stable design of the locking bolt drive, the device logic and
functionality are configured to replicate the functionality of a power-torelease or power-to-lock solenoid-operated switch (depending on type).

Guard Locking Switch
Introduction
Safety Certification
The Guardmaster 440G-LZ satisfies applicable requirements in the
following standards related to functional and machinery assembly:
• IEC 60947-5-1: 2003+A1: 2009
• IEC 60947-5-3: 1999/A: 2005
• IEC 61508:2010 SIL 3
• IEC 62061:2005 SIL 3
• EN/ISO 13849-1:2008/AC: 2009 Performance Level e (PLe), Category
4
• EN/ISO 14119:2013
• UL 508 17
This section describes the safety performance level concept and explains
how the Guardmaster 440G-LZ meets the requirements for SIL 3, Cat. 4 or
Performance Level “e” (PLe) applications.
The Guardmaster 440G-LZ is certified for use in safety applications up to
and including SIL 3 according to IEC 61508 and IEC 62061 with a proof test
interval of 20 years, Performance Level PLe and Category 4 in compliance
with ISO 13849-1.
th
Edition dated 3/19/2013
Safety requirements are based on the standards applicable at the time of
certification.
The TÜV Rheinland group has approved the Guardmaster 440G-LZ for use
in safety-related applications where Performance Level “e” is required for
the door position and lock monitoring functions.
The 440G-LZ must be installed in accordance with the applicable
regulation and standards.
While the 440G-LZ can be used for SIL 3, PLe and Category 4 applications,
the installer must comply with guard requirements (e.g. EN/ISO13854
and EN/ISO 13857) and in some cases also minimum (safe) distance
requirements (e.g. EN/ISO 13855).
Rockwell Automation Publication 440G-UM001A-EN-P — November 201311
Chapter 2
The installed system, including the safety control system and the means
by which the machine stops, must achieve the needed safety
performance. The 440G-LZ is one element in the safety system.
Additional guidance on guards, guard locking and guard interlocking
may be found in:
• EN/ISO 12100
• EN/ISO 13854
• EN/ISO 13855
• EN/ISO 13857
• EN/ISO 14119
• EN/ISO TR 24119
• EN/ISO 14120
• Application specific C-Level standards
