Knox – a safety lock with combined reset and locking function

Our earlier version of Knox can be used both as a safety lock and a process lock. If you want a process lock and the safety lock function is not necessary, our new Knox 2X is now available. Knox is a robust and strong safety and process lock that can be used to guarantee no one can gain access to a hazardous machine until it has completely stopped or to prevent unintentional interrupts of processes.

The new version of Knox, Knox 2X, gives you a process lock which is easy to install. The connection is made through a 5-pole M12 connector, with a pin configuration which allows connection to an Urax unit for easy connection to the AS-i bus.

Our earlier version Knox 2A with the safety lock function will, of course, remain available.

Knox safety lock ensures that doors are locked
The handles operate as they would on a normal door but the exterior handle also have a reset function, why a separate reset button is not necessary. It is always possible to open the door from the inside, using the emergency stop handle.

The design and durability of the lock makes it ideal for harsh environments as the sensors are non-contact and the lock is manufactured of stainless steel. Knox is available in a number of adaptations such as left-hung door, right-hung door, inward and outward opening, with manual unlocking and for sliding door.
