Product Details
Schmersal Non-Contact Safety Switch, 100V AC/DC, M12 - BNS16 Series - BNS 16-12ZU
This Schmersal non-contact safety switch rapidly cuts power to your circuit to prevent injuries when the safety guard on your machine is removed. Thanks to its magnetic mechanism, it doesn’t make physical contact with your machinery. This reduces this risk of mechanical wear and minimises maintenance downtime. The switch is insensitive to transverse misalignment for ease of installation. It's compatible with the BPS 16 actuating magnet (617-5346), making it simple to create a complete safety switch system.
Features & Benefits
• Glass fibre-reinforced thermoplastic material is self-extinguishing for safety in the event of a fire
