MPC Coded Interlock Switch

 

IDEM Safety SwitchesIDEM MPC Coded Interlock Switches have a coded magnetic actuation switching tolerance up to 10mm.

Specified to 80C but design to work up to 100C, these coded switches will operate with most EN 954-1 Cat. 4 Safety Relays.

Compact yet extremely robust fitting suitable for all small guard applications LED indication.
Hygienic screw covers ensure suitability for Food Processing washdown.
Wide sensing at 10mm.
High specification polyester housing with backplate.
Can be mounted unobtrusively in channels or behind doors, providing left or right cable exit.
Up to: PLe ISO 13849-1 SIL 3 EN 62061 Cat 4 EN 954-1
2NO 1NO Circuit - High Switching Life - No moving parts

Application

Coded Non Contact switches are designed to interlock hinged, sliding or removal guard doors. They are specifically advantageous when:

  1. poor guard alignment exists
  2. anti-tamper is required
  3. high hygiene requirements exist e.g. food industry hose down
  4. a long mechanical life is required (no moving or touching parts). When used in combination with a Dual Channel Safety Relay, Coded Non Contact Switches can be used to provide protection up to Category 4 and Ple to ISO13849-1.

Operation

All IDEM Coded Non Contact Safety Switches are designed to conform to IEC 60947-5-3 and be used as directed by EN1088, EN ISO12100 and EN 60204-1. They have coded magnetic sensing which provides a wide (>10mm) sensing distance and provides a high tolerance to misalignment after sensing. They can be fitted behind stainless steel fittings and can operate in extreme environments of temperature and moisture.
