Safety locking device
PSENslock 2
Safety gate monitoring combined with electromagnetic process guarding. Where opening a guard mid-cycle would spoil the process rather than expose a person to run-down, PSENslock 2 holds the guard closed and monitors its position, on swing gates, sliding gates, covers and flaps.
Process guarding
1,000 or 2,000 N holding force
Adjustable latching force

Why it is specified
PSENslock 2 provides
The device combines guard position monitoring with electromagnetic holding, and adds configuration options that matter in practice on real doors.
Reliable process protection
Holding force F1max of optionally 1,000 or 2,000 N keeps the guard closed through the cycle.
Adjustable latching force
Latching force is adapted to the door through the Config Key, rather than being fixed at manufacture.
Independent safety outputs
A version is available whose OSSDs switch independently of the guard locking status, adding flexibility in the control design.
Diagnostics both sides
Four LEDs on both sides give direct status indication regardless of mounting orientation.
Applications
PSENslock 2 is used
The manufacturer states the device safeguards swing gates and sliding gates, as well as covers and flaps.
01
Swing and sliding gates
Cell access doors where the guard must stay closed for the duration of the production cycle.
02
Covers and flaps
Inspection covers and hoppers where an opened flap would interrupt or contaminate the process.
03
Nuisance-stop reduction
Machines where unnecessary interruptions are the actual problem, rather than a hazardous run-down.
04
Rugged environments
Applications needing efficient guard locking where conditions are demanding, at IP67.
Process guarding is not personnel-protection locking. Where hazardous movement continues after the stop command and a person could reach it, review PSENmlock instead, which provides safe guard locking rated for personnel protection.
Technical data
Selection parameters that matter
These are the values that decide the variant. Complete specifications, approvals and dimensions belong to the selected order number in current manufacturer documentation.
The manufacturer lists PSENslock 2 as designed for the highest category applications, for efficient guard locking in rugged environmental conditions.
| Function | Safety gate monitoring with electromagnetic process guarding |
|---|---|
| Guard types | Swing gates, sliding gates, covers and flaps |
| Holding force | F1max, optionally 1,000 N or 2,000 N |
| Latching force | Adjustable via the Config Key |
| Performance level | PL e and PL d application routes listed by |
| Protection type | IP67 |
| Diagnostics | 4 LEDs on both sides for direct status indication |
| Output option | Version whose safety outputs (OSSDs) switch independently of guard locking status |
Confirm the performance level for the exact variant. The achievable level follows from the complete safety function including evaluation, output and machine response.
Models
Variant decisions
Three choices normally define the order: holding force, output behaviour and connection arrangement.
Holding force
1,000 N or 2,000 N
Selected from the door mass, the force a person might apply and the process-protection requirement.
- Options
- 2
- Parameter
- F1max
Output behaviour
Independent OSSD version
Safety outputs switch independently of the guard locking status, allowing the locking and the safety signal to be handled separately in the control design.
- Benefit
- Control flexibility
- Type
- OSSD
Configuration
Config Key adjustment
Latching force is adapted to individual requirements on site rather than fixed by the ordered variant.

Accessories
Connection technology and pairings
The manufacturer lists dedicated accessories for safety gate monitoring alongside this family, plus a range of adapters and cables.
Configuration
Config Key
Used to adapt the latching force to the individual door, so the guard holds without being difficult to operate.
ConfirmWhether on-site adjustment is planned.
System pairing
With gate controls and evaluation
Commonly combined with a gate operating unit for local commands and a controller for the safe evaluation.
Typical pairingPITgatebox and PNOZmulti 2.
Before quotation
Application review
The first question is whether process guarding is genuinely sufficient, or whether the hazard requires personnel-protection locking.
Purpose of locking
- Whether locking protects the process or personnel
- Measured run-down time after the stop command
- Whether a person could reach hazardous movement
- Target performance level, if determined
Door and force
- Swing gate, sliding gate, cover or flap
- Door mass and the force likely to be applied
- Whether 1,000 N or 2,000 N is required
- Alignment tolerance and mounting faces
Control integration
- Whether independent OSSD switching is wanted
- Existing safety relay or controller and spare inputs
- Connection method and cable length
- Whether local gate controls are required
Environment and commercial
- Cleaning regime and whether IP67 is sufficient
- Temperature, vibration and contamination
- Quantity per machine and total quantity
- Whether this replaces PSENslock, and the existing part number
