A guard door monitoring system comprising a guard door monitoring module for monitoring a state of a guard door to a safety area. The guard door monitoring system also comprises a control unit, configured to analyze a guard door signal generated by interaction between an actuator and a sensor, and to control a machine or system located in the safety area depending on the guard door signal. A locking device with a main body and a locking lever arranged on the main body is additionally provided. The locking lever can be moved relative to the main body from a release position into a blocking position in which the locking lever prevents the interaction between the actuator and the sensor, wherein the locking device comprises a receptacle for a lockable securing part, which, when introduced into the receptacle, keeps the locking lever in the blocking position.

Safety mat for safeguarding an electrically driven installation, comprising a sensor, a rigid supporting body and an evaluation unit. The supporting body has a top side, a rear side and first and second side faces, adjoining the top and rear sides. The sensor has an active surface covering the top side of the supporting body. The rear side has an opening for contacting an evaluation unit arranged in the interior of the supporting body that is configured to provide an output signal depending on the actuation of the sensor. The first side face has a first cavity and the second side face has a second cavity. The rear side has a first and a second cable guide. The first cable guide connects the opening to the first cavity and the second cable guide connects the opening to the second cavity.

Safety mat for safeguarding a technical installation

An operator cabinet has a wall having a front side, a rear side and a cutout defined by an inner edge. An operator terminal is installed in the cutout and has a frame surrounding a display for displaying at least one system state of a technical system. The outer frame edge is dimensioned so as to be larger than the inner edge of the cutout, with the result that, when installed, the frame can rest on the front side of the wall. A plate having an outer plate edge is dimensioned so as to be larger than the inner edge of the cutout with the result that, when installed, the plate can rest on the rear side of the wall. A plurality of bolts are secured at one end on the frame and extend, when installed, through the cutout and then through corresponding holes in the plate.
