Non-Contact Magnetic Safety Switches
Safety Interlock Switches

Non-Contact Magnetic Safety Switches ... New!
Non-contact safety switches are interlocking devices that are designed to protect both people and machines. They are preferred in certain applications where no physical contact (under normal conditions) takes place between the switch and actuator.

Available in industry standard style plastic and stainless steel housings
Styles: Non-contact magnetic and non-contact coded magnetic
Wide (>10mm) sensing distance
High tolerance to misalignment after sensing
Enclosure protections: IP67, IP69K
All Models: cULus, RoHS, CE approvals

Non-Contact Coded Magnetic Safety Switches
Coded non-contact safety switches use coded magnets to close the circuits, thereby offering even more protection. The safety switch and actuator work together in such a way that the enable condition from the safety device is only triggered if the actuating element is within the switch's response range and the code on the actuator matches that of the switch.

Non-Contact Magnetic Safety Switches
These are simple magnetic reed switches and are designed to conform to IEC 60947-5-3 and be used as directed by EN1088, EN ISO12100 and EN 60204-1.

Non-Contact Magnetic Safety Switches Overview

Safety Interlock Switches
These safety switches are developed and manufactured according to IEC and EN European standards and are UL listed for Type 4 machine safety/ OSHA machine guarding.
