The coded safety switches 'PSENcode' from Pilz, which are based on RFID transponder technology, now offer a further solution for space-critical applications: According to the manufacturer, the PSENcode low profile actuator, which is only 3 mm high, is currently the lowest actuator in the world. The actuator complements the 'PSENcode' safety switches in the narrow or compact design and can be combined with them.
It can be glued and screwed and can therefore also be used on Plexiglas. A safe switching distance of 6 mm regardless of the surface is another feature.
The coded safety switches offer safe monitoring up to PL e in accordance with EN ISO 13489-1 or SIL CL 3 in accordance with EN/IEC 6206, with 'PSENcode' safely monitoring up to three positions that the sensor can reliably distinguish.
