Allen Bradley Guardmaster 440N Series Magnetic Non-Contact Safety Switch, 250V ac, Plastic Housing, NC, 6m Cable

The Ferrogard magnetically actuated safety switches combine the reliability of non-contact switches with a high tolerance to machine guard door misalignment, giving you optimal protection. They are designed to work in all positions and offer application flexibility.

These durable switches can function in wet and dusty environments as they have a high IP67 ingress protection rating, which ensures that they are dust-tight and can withstand some immersion in water. The enclosure is comprised of resilient ABS plastic which is red for improved visibility. They have protected safety contacts to ensure that they do not fail to danger. These cost-efficient, versatile switches are ideal for use in applications where mechanical systems are not practical.

• Internal non-resettable overload protection on the safety contact
• Wide sensing field provides high tolerance to door misalignment
• Contact-free actuation helps ensure long service life due to less wear-and-tear
• Suitable for use in wash-down environments due to high IP67 rating
• Lightweight ABS plastic housing offers resistance to corrosive acids, chemicals, and saline solutions

The 440N-G02038 Ferrogard magnetically actuated switch has 1NC safety contact, 1NO auxiliary contact. It comes with a 6m cable and rectangular FRS 2 housing. The safety contact switching capability is 250V ac, 2A maximum current. The operating distance for this interlock switch is 12mm (make), 23mm (break).

Rockwell Automation is a global leader in industrial automation and digital transformation, and brings smart manufacturing to life. With a long legacy of creating Allen-Bradley® integrated control and information solutions, we help make you as productive as possible. Our portfolio of sensing, safety and motor control products can support your move towards smart machine applications. Allen-Bradley® IO-Link sensors are data-enabled and communicate with all field buses, providing diagnostic and health information about the device before a machine stops, and enabling quick production changeovers through fast parameter downloads from PLCs into the device. This reduces machine downtime and increases manufacturing OEE. For safety components, products with built-in diagnostics simplify the set-up of the smart device, and reduce maintenance, leading to a more efficient, machine data-driven approach.

Non-contact safety switches are highly reliable and durable. They take less wear and tear and are low-maintenance, as well as resistant to shocks and vibrations. They cannot be easily manipulated or tampered with and are ideal for use with machine guard doors to restrict access to unsafe areas. They are often used in industrial environments, such as in factory production lines.
