Schmersal BNS 16-12ZR is a Magnetic Non-Contact Safety Switch from the BNS16 series, designed with a robust plastic housing reinforced with glass fibre. It operates at 100V AC/DC and supports a switching current of up to 400mA. This switch is crucial for improving safety in heavy-duty industrial equipment by stopping machines instantly when guard doors open, thereby preventing accidents and injuries.
The switch employs magnetic sensor technology with 1 normally open (NO) and 2 normally closed (NC) contacts, providing flexible safety configurations. Its plastic body is highly resistant to heat and impact, and the material is self-extinguishing for enhanced fire safety. The device is insensitive to transverse misalignments, simplifying installation and maintenance.
Engineered for demanding use, it operates across a temperature range from -25°C to +70°C and holds an IP67 rating, protecting against dust ingress and temporary water immersion up to 1 meter depth. The M20 connection type and compact rectangular form factor (dimensions: length 90mm, width 52mm, depth 38.5mm) facilitate easy mounting and operation.
Certified to international standards including CE, IEC 60947-5-3, EN ISO 13849-1, BG-GS-ET-14, TUV, cULus listing, and EAC, it is suitable for applications in industrial sectors such as construction and steel manufacturing. Note, the actuating magnet is not included and must be ordered separately for full system functionality.
The switch houses 1 NO and 2 NC safety contacts enabling multiple safety circuit options. IP67 rating ensures protection from dust and water for reliable use in harsh environments. Robust plastic housing is glass fibre reinforced, impact resistant, and heat durable.
Electrical ratings include 100V AC/DC voltage and 400mA switching current capacity. Meets stringent safety and quality standards for industrial safety applications.
This magnetic safety switch is essential for diverse industrial safety applications, including construction sites and steel plants, ensuring operator protection and machine safety.
