Chapter 1 Before Operation
1-1 Overview and Configuration
The GS (Lock) is a Type4 Interlocking Device with guard lock based on
ISO14119.
Coding level: Low or high (switchable)
“4-7 Coding Level” (page 7)
By combining the GS (Lock) with a door or similar movable safety guard and
with a safety-related control system, it is possible to prevent the door or
similar part from opening during hazardous machine operations.
The GS (Lock) can also be used for other purposes such as
protecting manufacturing processes.

The sensor’s operating distance may be affected by the
presence of metal in the surrounding area. After installation,
determine the minimum safety distance based on the actual
operating distance and check if it is provided appropriately.
• Install the GS (lock) so that the lock bolt inserts securely
into the sensor’s insertion slot when the door or similar
object to which the actuator is installed is closed.
• Do not use the GS (Lock) as a mechanical stopper.
