Schmersal Magnetic Non-Contact Safety Switch, Plastic Housing, 24V DC, 2 NC, M8 BNS 260-02/01ZG-ST-R

Schmersal BNS 260-02/01ZG-ST-R is a Magnetic Non-Contact Safety Switch designed to safeguard personnel and protect production processes in demanding industrial environments. It is especially suitable for use on movable machine guards or robotic arms where reliable, tamper-resistant safety monitoring is critical.

This safety switch features a robust plastic rectangular housing resistant to chemicals and mechanical wear, meeting IP67 ingress protection against dust and temporary water immersion. The compact switch measures 52mm in length, 36mm in width, and 13mm in depth, facilitating installation in constrained spaces.

Operating on 24V DC, the switch has two normally closed (NC) safety contacts and one auxiliary contact, enabling versatile electrical safety configurations. It employs a coded magnetic actuator that only operates with the properly matched magnetic field, enhancing tamper resistance and ensuring safety integrity.

Integrated LED status indicators provide intuitive visual confirmation of the switch state, facilitating quick diagnostics and maintenance checks. The switch handles switching currents up to 400mA and switching voltages of 24V DC and 75V AC.

Applications include woodworking machinery, food processing equipment, and chemical processing plants where safe guard monitoring is essential. The switch conforms to VDE and CE safety standards and holds a category 4 safety rating for high-risk applications.

The Schmersal BNS 260-02/01ZG-ST-R switch does not include an actuator; it must be used with a compatible coded magnetic actuator. It supports multiple guard types, including sliding, hinge, and lift-off guards, providing maximum installation flexibility.

This switch has a thermoplastic rectangular body with chemical and wear resistance. Two normally closed safety contacts and one auxiliary contact allow safe control circuits. Magnetic coded actuator type ensures only authorized actuator operation.

IP67 rated enclosure protects against dust and temporary immersion. LED indicators for visual switch status monitoring. Compact size of 52mm x 36mm x 13mm for space-saving installation. Certified to VDE and CE standards with Category 4 safety rating.

Suitable for woodworking, chemical processing, and food processing machinery. Manufactured in Germany ensuring quality and reliability. Explore our wide range of Safety Switches and automation components at EnvMart to enhance your industrial safety systems.
