The PXS or PSS type products are sensors designed to control the opening of protective devices, machine casings and access professional doors.
Associated with their respective coded magnet and a controller module, they are capable of monitoring 1 or more "O" contacts
(break, closed with a magnet) and/or 1 or more "C" contacts (make, closed with a magnet). They meet the "CE" directives and
European regulations relating to machine conformity as per the standards EN60204 - EN1088 - En 954 and be covered by the
categories 1 to 4 of these standards according to the associated module (CETIM certificate).
Safety functions performed thanks to :
- Tamper-proof: the sensor, associated with its coded magnet, reduces the possibility of tampering ; a standard magnet cannot
actuate the sensor .
- Redundancy: the components are redundant. If part of the sensor fails, the redundant circuit continues to operate.
- Unbalance: associated with a controller module which checks the unbalance of the signals from the sensor, the first fault is
signaled if the switches are not actuated in the right order
Magnetic protection sensors represent an alternative to mechanical position switches in the following cases :
- Mechanical clearance required to overcome alignment or vibration problems,
- Compulsory complete sealing: industrial, food and mechanical environments,
- Longer lifetime and reliability. |

Eden is a new non-contact sensor using dynamic signal transmission. The sensor operates to category 4 according to EN 954-1 and has an extended sensing distance. Several Eden sensors and light beams can be connected in the same safety circuit and dynamically monitored by the Vital safety module.
We also offer several other types of interlocking devices. The Emergency Stop Grab Wire protection switch JSNY10 provides 'emergency shutdown' up to 25 metres. |

BNS range magnetic safety detection serve to monitor the position of sliding, hinged and removable safety guards. Sensors without integral evaluation can only be used for safety duties to DIN VDE 0660-209 in combination with a safety guard monitor of the AES / AZR range for protection up to Control Category 4 to EN 954-1, see chapter 10.2.
The use of magnetic safety sensors is of particular advantage in cases where extremely dirty conditions can occur or high hygienic standards need to be maintained. This is provided by the simplicity of cleaning the units.
A further advantage is the facility for concealed mounting under non-magnetic materials. Working surfaces and storage areas can be arranged without the need for dust-collecting edges or other functionally required cut-outs or projections.
BNS range magnetic safety sensors can also be used in cases where a precise approach is not possible and greater tolerances are required.
Schmersal make both standard and AS-i Safety at Work magnetic safety sensors.

Ultrasonic manufacturer of proximity switches are used wherever distances have to be measured in air. The targets to be detected can be in the solid, liquid, granular or powder state. The material may be transparent, or colored and of any shape, as well as having a polished or matt surface.
Contrinex ultrasonic proximity switches are available as diffuse and reflex sensors. The delivery program comprises M18 short devices adjustable with teach-in, as well as compact switches in sizes M18 and M30, programmable by means of a potentiometer and/or interface. The M18 compact devices are available with either switching or analog outputs. In addition, versions of the M30 execution are available with either one or two switching outputs, or with analog and switching outputs in the same device. Contrinex ultrasonic proximity switches are notable for their high excess gain as well as a small blind zone, and can achieve operating distances of up to 6000 mm. For optimum adjustment to the application conditions, the compact switch parameters can be programmed, visualized, checked and modified by means of a PC interface device and the accompanying CONPROG professional software. |

Sonar Proximity switches manufacturers SIMATIC PXS
From 3 cm to 10 m - They Hear Everything!
Our sonar proximity switches sense objects of varying materials, shapes, colors or consistencies with absolute precision, flexibility and reliability. The application potential is almost unlimited. Whether recording fill levels or heights, measuring distances or counting bottles, our switches recognize objects with a wide range of properties from a distance of 3 cm to 10 m, regardless whether they are liquid, solid, powdery or even transparent. Surface conditions are irrelevant as well - they can be rough or smooth, clean or dirty, wet or dry. Our proximity switches feature maximum ruggedness and resistance against dirt, vibration and extraneous light or sound.

| Ultrasonic sensors use ultrasonic waves for non-contact and wear-free detection of a large variety of objects. It does not matter whether the object is transparent or opaque, metallic or non-metallic, or of liquid, solid or powdery consistence. Environmental conditions such as professional spray, dust or rain hardly affect their function. |

The RPS-322 (model shown) has 2 sealed stainless steel multiplexed transducers, independent range control adjustments, Led monitors, and form C relay outputs.
The transducer head is constructed of 303 grade stainless steel with a 302 grade stainless steel sensing face, and is best suited for environments where dirt and moisture are a problem, as well as some chemical environments. This sensor also has a unique master and slave feature which enables many of the same units to be used within close proximity of one another without cross-talk interference. For example, if three sensors are needed in a close area, one sensor would be left as a master and the other two would be slaves.
The remote transducers allow for mounting of the sensor heads in cramped spaces while the controller is out of the way. The (2) independent and isolated form C relays furnish N.O. and N.C. outputs. This sensor operates at a frequency of 150kHz for the 72" range. This sensor has a narrow sensing beam. Mounting flanges, LED indicators, ranging potentiometers, and 6-ft. transducer cables are included. Optional cable lengths are available.

| The RPS-40-5 is a compact, high frequency sensor. It was introduced to the Migatron family of ultrasonic sensors to better meet the needs of the machine manufacturing industry. This sensor has a wide array of application solutions not found in other proximity sensor manufacturers technologies. The RPS-40-5 has a fixed 0.5-5" sensing range with background suppression (meaning any object with the range is detected, while objects out of the range are ignored). It cannot be affected by changes in target color or material. |

Capacitive sensors evaluate the change in capacitance which occurs when an object enters the electrical field of a capacitor. When appropriately dimensioned, the capacitive sensor is also able to “see through” certain non-metallic materials. This ability makes it the classical level indicator, sensing the level of liquids and granular products through container walls..

PSEN sensor technology, Safety for man and machine
Protection switches ... for safety gate and position monitoring :
Hazardous machine movements must be stopped when a guard is opened. It must not be possible to either defeat or manipulate these guards. PSEN safety switches meet this requirement and are therefore suitable for monitoring gates in safety fences for safety zones, for example.
Safety manufacturer of bolt ... for safety gates in a rugged everyday industrial environment :
For safety gates that are difficult to adjust or in areas where safety gates are often opened and closed, protection must be provided against defeat and manipulation, but a long material service life must also be guaranteed. PSENbolt provides a complete solution, comprising safety switch, handle and bolt.
Safe industrial camera systems : to monitor two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) zones. |

| Honeywell Sensing and Control ultrasonic distance sensors solve tough position sensing problems, detecting targets made of practically any material. They work in dry, dusty environments. Particularly useful where other sensing technologies have difficulty, such as: clear or shiny objects, foggy or particle laden air, splashing liquids, etc. Also where larger sensors or longer sensing distances are required. |
