According to Tapeswitch, Salus offers the benefits of low maintenance, fast commissioning, high speed of access and efficient operation via an “easy-close” alignment feature. New features include an integrated lock cover, ergonomic housing and the ability to close gates or doors, even when they are misaligned. The stainless-steel lock housing and mechanism are suitable for use in food or pharmaceutical applications. Salus can be used with both sliding and hinged doors.
