Mechan Electronically Coded Safety Switches

Description:

The S-Type safety switches are electronic, non-contact, safety switch and actuator, suitable for use in machine guarding.

The S-Type safety switches are designed to be used in part of safety related control system. A risk assessment should take place to establish that the specifications of these safety switches are suitable for the application required.

Operations:

Mechan S-Type safety switches can approach each other from most directions.

When closed the targets printed on the front face of the switches must be aligned. Large target to large target and small target to small target as shown opposite.

When the power is on and the switch and actuator are apart the NO contact(s) will be open and the NC contact will be closed. When the actuator is brought within the specified switching distance ( see page 1) the NO contact(s) will close and the NC contact will open.

LED Indication:

SSS has a green LED which is illuminated when the switch is powered and the gate is closed.

The SS-R and SS-C have a dual colour LED (Red & Green) Red when the power is on and gate open, green when the gate is closed.
