Overview
The Schmersal AZ 15/16-B1-1747 retrofit kit is a straight actuator key engineered for precise, play-free interlocking in light guard safety systems. This German-manufactured component combines a magnetic latch mechanism with straightforward installation, making it ideal for retrofit applications on AZ 15 and AZ 16 interlock assemblies. The magnetic latch self-positions in any actuating plane, eliminating alignment complexity and reducing downtime during field upgrades.
