Swedish term or phrase: grindskyddsbrytare
“Träindustrin är en av de farligaste branscherna att arbeta i.
Arbetsmiljöverket ställer krav på en förändring och landets sågverk och hyvlerier måste förbättra säkerheten. Setras sågverk i Malå har redan tagit itu med problemet. Där ser grindskyddsbrytare och felsäkra styrsystem från Siemens till att maskinerna stoppas säkert när personalen behöver röra sig inom skyddszonerna.”

Reference information:
As you say you are working from a text on Siemens products, this is the terminology used by Siemens.

Med den nya ASIsafe-kompaktmodulen K45F 4F-DI är det nu möjligt att ansluta dubbelt så många felsäkra ingångar i samma nod. Detta innebär att det är möjligt att ansluta två felsäkra enheter för kategori 4 eller SIL 3, som till exempel två nödstoppsknappar eller två grindskyddsbrytare. Detta reducerar kostnaden ytterligare och sparar plats i anläggningen.

The new ASIsafe K45F 4F-DI compact module offers twice as many safe inputs in the same housing as its predecessor version, allowing the connection of two devices for Cat. 4/SIL 3, such as two emergency-stop switches or position switches. This reduces costs and saves space in the plant.
