Ask for use case, specification boundaries, supplier type, and RFQ preparation information for this product.
The interlock mechanism prevents the door or valve of a Rapid Transfer Port from being opened when the system is under pressure, in operation, or connected to a process line, and vice-versa. It enforces a safe sequence of operations to avoid contamination, exposure to hazards, or equipment damage.
The wetted parts are available in stainless steel (e.g., 316L) or hardened alloy steel, as listed in the reference data. The specific material grade should be confirmed with the manufacturer for the intended application.
Reference parameters include temperature range of -20 to 80 °C, cycle life of at least 100,000 cycles, response time ≤0.5 s, leakage rate ≤1×10⁻⁶ Pa·m³/s (ISO 15848-1), electrical supply 24 V DC ±10%, power consumption ≤10 W, ingress protection IP54–IP65 (IEC 60529), and weight 5–8 kg. These are reference ranges and must be verified for the specific model.
You should confirm the model-specific parameters, material grades, and compliance with applicable standards with the legal manufacturer or supplier. Also, ensure that the interlock's operating conditions match your RTP system's requirements, such as pressure, temperature, and electrical supply.
