Description
The Mechan Magnasafe series switches are compact, magnetically operated safety switches designed for use with modern safety relays. The MS5SS safety switches are easy to install and tolerant to misalignment. The MS5SSHT are equipped with a special cable for use in high temperature environments, e.g. cooking / food processing. The MS5SSLQD version has 150mm connecting cable with M12, 6 pole connector, and can be supplied with 5 or 10 metre matching cable. The non-contact operation of the Mechan Magnasafe series has a 7 – 10 mm switching distance helping to ensure a long and trouble free operating life.
