Use this compact non-contact safety switch from Schmersal to monitor guard gates and ensure safe machine operating conditions. If hazardous conditions are present, it will cut off access until safe conditions return. The switch is insensitive to transverse misalignment and soiling, giving you more accurate data analysis. A magnetic drive is used to turn on the actuator, so there's no mechanical wear. This means you're assured a long and reliable operating life.
