The AI-HD is used as a part of a safety system, which ensures a machine is shut down, before access to the hazardous area is allowed.
The system involves a KS key switch that breaks the machine safety circuit, when the key is removed. The key can then be taken to the AI-HD Access Interlock to enable access to the machine. The machine cannot be restarted until the door is closed, the bolt is replaced and the key is removed and taken to the KS key switch.
