Allen Bradley Guardmaster 440N Series Magnetic Non-Contact Safety Switch, 24V dc, Plastic Housing, NC, 2m Cable

The Ferrogard FRS 6, 9 and 10 are magnetically actuated non-contact safety switches which offer reliability and a high tolerance to misalignment. Designed to be installed on a guard door, the action of the magnetic actuator being removed from the switch opens the N.C. safety contacts therefore isolating the control power to the machines primary control element. Moulded in ABS plastic with a slim rectangular housing to accommodate narrow mounting areas and sealed to IP67 (NEMA 6P), these non-contact switches are ideal for wet environments. They have two active sensing faces allowing more flexible mounting options.

Looking for a reliable safety device for your guard doors? Turn to this Allen Bradley switch from Rockwell Automation. It's a magnetically actuated safety switch that works by immediately cutting off the power supply to a running machine when the guard doors are opened. Use it to prevent accidents and improve workplace safety. The sensor is housed in a robust ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) material that provides reliable impact and corrosion resistance for long-term performance. This switch is commonly used in manufacturing environments to prevent unsafe access to moving machine parts.

• Compact dimensions of 84 (length) x 19 (width) x 16mm (depth) to fit into small spaces
• Overload protection to ensure electrical safety
• Short break distance of 23mm for speedy actuation when the door is opened
• IP67 (ingress protection) rating for complete protection against dust and resistance to water

• BS EN 61340-5-1:2007 (British Standard)
• ANSI/ESD S20.20:2014 (American National Standards Institute)
• UL (Underwriters' Laboratories)
• CE (Conformité Européene)
• CSA (Canadian Standards Association)

You can use this versatile unit for a wide variety of industrial guard types, including hinge-type doors, sliding doors and lift-off hinge doors.

The 400N series safety switches have simplified set up and alignment to decrease your installation costs. All Ferrogard switches have internal non-resettable overload protection on the safety contact, as well as protected safety contacts to help ensure that they do not fail to danger, providing your machine processes with a higher level of stability.

Allen Bradley Guardmaster offer a huge range of machine safety and monitoring devices to meet all of your application requirements and have been recognised for their excellence and innovation. Their top-quality, rigorously tested devices will vastly improve the security of your machines and help you to maximise efficiency and productivity in your workplace.

Non-contact safety switches have a long service life as they take less wear and are low-maintenance, they are also resistant to shocks and vibrations and cannot be easily tampered with. They are well suited for sliding, hinge, and lift-off machine guard doors and are frequently used in industrial environments, such as factories, to monitor and protect the safety barriers of dangerous machines. Allen Bradley Guardmaster is a world leading brand for machine safety devices, and their products are constructed to global standards for high stability, reliability, and quality.
