For safety gate
and position monitoring
According to the standard
EN 1088, hazardous machine
movements must be stopped
when a guard is opened and
a restart must be prevented.
It must not be possible to either
defeat (VDE 060) or manipulate
(EN 1088) these guards.
PSEN safety switches are
particularly effective and economical in meeting these requirements. They are available with
various designs and operating
principles, can be used under
diffi cult environmental conditions
and can be connected in series.
Choose the appropriate mechanical, magnetic or coded safety
switch from Pilz!
For each application …
Mechanical safety switches are
particularly suitable for applications in which the safety gate
should not be opened unintentionally. More from page 12.

Selection guide for safety gate applications and position detection
PSENmag non-contact, magnetic
safety switches can be used
when the risk analysis specifi es
a high category, where there is
heavy soiling or where strict
hygiene regulations need to be
met. More from page 16.
The highest level of protection
against manipulation can
be achieved using the noncontact, coded safety switches
PSENcode; the enable is
triggered when the actuating
element is within the switch‘s
response range and the code
on the actuator matches that
of the switch (key lock principle).

PSENbolt safety bolts are used
in conjunction with safety switches and offer the best protection
for safety gates that are diffi cult
to adjust or in areas where safety
gates are opened and closed
frequently. More from page 24.
