Why Choose the IMO PSC306ON024-F Safety Door Interlock?
The IMO PSC306ON024-F is a solenoid-operated safety door interlock with a flat actuator. It is designed for integration into machine guarding systems that coordinate access through a movable guard with the machine control sequence.
The PSC306 contact configuration is 2NC + NC, providing normally closed contact groups for the associated monitoring circuit. The contacts must be connected according to the device's switching diagram so that the control system correctly interprets the relevant interlock states.
This version uses a 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply and an off-to-release operating principle. Removing power from the solenoid permits release, making the effect of a supply interruption an important consideration when selecting the guard locking arrangement.
Key Advantages
- Combines mechanical actuator engagement with solenoid-operated locking.
- Flat actuator suits appropriately aligned guard installations.
- 24 V AC/DC operation supports compatible control supplies.
- Normally closed contacts provide signals for the monitoring circuit.
- Allows guard access to be coordinated with machine operation.
- Suitable for new machinery and replacement of matching interlocks.
Key Features
- IMO safety door interlock.
- Separate key actuator operating principle.
- Flat actuator variant.
- Solenoid-operated locking.
- 24 V AC/DC solenoid supply.
- Off-to-release operation.
- 2NC + NC contact configuration.
Guard Interlocking for Industrial Machinery
A guard interlock connects the condition of a machine access point to the control system. Solenoid-operated locking adds electrical control of actuator retention, allowing the guard arrangement to participate in a defined operating sequence.
For an off-to-release device, loss of solenoid power permits unlocking. The complete safeguarding design must account for this behaviour, particularly where hazardous movement continues after power is removed, and must include appropriate monitoring, stopping functions and validation.
Typical Applications
- Machine access doors requiring an off-to-release interlock.
- Guarded production equipment with suitable stopping behaviour.
- Packaging machinery with coordinated access control.
- Automation enclosures using compatible guard locking circuits.
- OEM safeguarding assemblies requiring a flat actuator.
- Maintenance replacement of matching interlock units.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the IMO PSC306ON024-F used for?
It provides key-actuated guard interlocking with solenoid-operated locking as part of a machine control and safeguarding system.
What supply does the solenoid require?
The solenoid is specified for 24 V AC/DC.
Which actuator type does this version use?
The PSC306ON024-F is the flat actuator version.
What contact configuration does it have?
The PSC306 configuration is 2NC + NC; the contact groups must be wired according to the device's switching diagram.
What does off-to-release mean?
Removing power from the solenoid permits unlocking, so the safeguarding design must account for guard release during a power interruption.
