Schmersal Magnetic Safety-Switch BNS-260-02Z-ST-R

Schmersal sensor is very safe to use. Senor works as good safety switch ON distance places. It has 1-NO and 2-NC contact number. Also a black color thermoplastic compound in it. This safety switch also can conceal mounted. Safety switch actuator is very good to use and also works separately.

Key Features:

Non-Contact Operation:
- Uses magnetic actuation, which allows for non-contact operation, reducing wear and tear and providing a longer operational life.
Safety Category:
- Meets high safety standards and is typically used in applications requiring SIL (Safety Integrity Level) or PL (Performance Level) compliance.
Sealed Design:
- The switch is sealed against dust and water, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Compact Size:
- The BNS-260 series is designed to be compact, allowing for easy integration into various safety systems and machinery.

Technical Specifications:

Housing Material: Typically made of robust plastic or metal, depending on the specific model.
Actuation Distance: The sensing range usually varies; refer to the specific model datasheet for exact distances.
Contact Type: Reed contacts, often configured as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC).
Switching Voltage: Typically designed to handle standard industrial control voltages.
Protection Class: Often rated IP67 or higher, indicating excellent protection against dust and water ingress.

Installation and Wiring:

Mounting:
- Mount the switch and the corresponding actuator (magnet) on the safety guard and the fixed part of the machine. Ensure they are aligned according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Wiring:
- Connect the switch to the safety control circuit. Follow the wiring diagram provided in the datasheet or installation manual. Typically involves connecting to a safety relay or safety PLC input.
Testing:
- After installation, test the switch by opening and closing the guard to ensure the machine stops or does not start when the guard is open. Verify that the switch operates as expected and that all safety functions are active.
