Non-contact switches for multiple guards
December 1st 2007 The new CES-AR-C from
Euchner makes it possible
to monitor several safety
guards at once. Up to 20
devices can be included in
one switch chain.
The non-contact safety
switch is suitable for
systems in which a large
number of guards need to
be monitored. It can also be
used as a compact
individual switch.
Its small housing
accommodates a read head
and an evaluation unit.
When used in a switch
chain, individual switches
are connected by plug
connectors. The end of the
chain is connected to a
safety relay or a safe PLC,
for example.
The CES-AR-C has two
safety outputs and pulsed
signals for integrated short
circuit monitoring. More articles from Euchner (UK) Limited: |
