Omron Actuator for Use with D41G Series Switch

Omron D41G Series Actuator, Plastic - D41G-A1R-E0

This actuator is a plastic accessory designed to work with the D41G safety door switch to enable guarded gate locking and actuation in industrial safety systems. It fits hinged or sliding guard doors and can include an integrated door-handle or emergency-exit unit so personnel can open from inside without energising the switch. The actuator is intended for use with a high-coded safety interlock to reduce tampering risk and is appropriate for installations that require monitored or non-monitored interlock behaviour.

Features and Benefits:

• Fibreglass-reinforced plastic construction offers corrosion resistance
  Holding force minimum 2,000 N secures guarded closures
  Spring-return actuator enables inside emergency-exit operation
  Wide key-hole tolerance reduces maintenance from misalignment
  Suitable for exterior mounting with integrated door-handle option
  Actuator sold separately simplifies replacement and retrofit

Applications

• Used with guarded hinged doors requiring lockable interlock
  Suitable for sliding safety guards in production lines
  Ideal for installations needing inside emergency-exit access
  Used for retrofitting safety door switches as a replacement accessory
  Suitable where RoHS and UL508 approvals are required

Can the actuator be operated when system power is lost?

The actuator with emergency-exit unit allows manual opening from inside without power.

What materials and approvals apply to this accessory?

The actuator is plastic with fibreglass reinforcement and meets RoHS and UL508/CAN/CSA C22.2 No.14 approvals where specified.

How does the actuator cope with door misalignment?

The switch key-hole is wide, permitting axial and lateral tolerances to accommodate hinge deformation and vibration.

Is the actuator intended for hazardous-area certification?

The actuator is not certified for hazardous-area use and must not be assumed suitable for such locations.

How is the actuator secured to prevent displacement or tampering?

It must be permanently fixed to the guard using tamper-proof methods such as glued or tamper-protected screws.
