The SMC and SPC Series coded non-contact safety
switches with universal 22 mm (0.87") fitting have been
designed to enable the conformance to EN60947-5-3
and be used as directed by ISO12100, ISO14121 and
EN60204-1. They have coded magnetic sensing which
provides a wide sensing distance and provides a high
tolerance to misalignment after sensing. They can be
fitted behind stainless steel fittings and can operate
from 4 directions even in extreme environments of
temperature and moisture. When used in combination
with most dual channel safety monitoring relays they
can be used to provide up to PLe to ISO13849-1.
These switches are designed to interlock hinged,
sliding or removable guard doors. SMC Series
stainless steel safety switches are designed for use
in the food processing and pharmaceutical industries.
SPC Series switches have been developed for
applications in general factory automation, packaging
and some food processing industries.
They are specifically advantageous when: • Poor guard alignment exists • Anti tamper sensing is required • High hygiene requirements exist, e.g. food industry
hose down • Long life is required (no moving or touching parts) • LED status indication is desirable
