Pilz PSENmag stainless steel magnetic safety switch

Pilz has expanded its PSENmag range of non-contact, magnetic safety switches to include a stainless steel variant. The stainless steel version reliably monitors safety gates and positions in harsh industrial environments up to 120°C and the robust stainless steel housing withstands extreme temperatures, impacts or vibrations.

The stainless steel housing offers minimal scope for deposits to form and is resistant against aggressive cleaning methods such as sterilising with hot steam. With protection level IP67/IP69K it can be used in areas with high contamination and high cleaning requirements such as the food industry, pharmaceutical production or cosmetic industry.

The stainless steel variant of PSENmag is available in two different versions — with a cable or plug-in connection. For applications under extreme temperatures, the cable version is resistant to heat and cold for temperature ranges of -25 to 80°C. The plug-in version can be used up to 120°C. It can also be used in explosive environments. The magnetic safety switch is vibration and shock resistant and has a high B10D value.

With additional signal contacts and an integrated LED, user-friendly diagnostics and thus rapid fault rectification are possible.
