Why Choose the IMO LRC6JK-D Door Interlock Switch?
The IMO LRC6JK-D is a compact industrial safety door interlock switch with a flat actuator, designed for reliable monitoring of guards, doors and access points on industrial machinery. As part of the IMO compact plastic door interlock range, it provides positive mechanical actuation with slow-action contacts for dependable machine safety and position monitoring.
The LRC6JK-D uses a separate flat actuator key that enters the switch when a machine guard or door is closed. Movement or removal of the actuator changes the state of the internal contacts, allowing a machine control or safety circuit to detect when the guard has been opened. Its 1 NO + 1 NC slow-action contact arrangement provides both normally open and normally closed switching functions.
Designed for industrial machine guarding applications, the LRC6JK-D combines a compact plastic housing with IP67 protection and a single PG13.5 cable entry. Its compact format makes it suitable for machinery where installation space is limited while providing a robust mechanical method of monitoring movable guards and access doors.

Reliable Guard Monitoring for Industrial Machinery
Door interlock switches such as the IMO LRC6JK-D provide a mechanical method of monitoring the position of movable machine guards and access doors. The flat actuator is normally mounted to the moving guard while the switch body is fixed to the machine structure. Closing the guard inserts the actuator into the switch and operates the internal contacts.
When the guard is opened and the actuator is withdrawn, the contacts change state so the associated machine control or safety system can respond. The slow-action contact mechanism provides defined switching behaviour, while the compact IP67 plastic housing makes the LRC6JK-D suitable for a wide variety of industrial machine-building applications.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard position monitoring.
- Industrial safety doors and access panels.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Automated manufacturing equipment.
- Machine tools and robotic cells.
- Conveyor and material handling machinery.
