Allen Bradley Guardmaster 440N Series Magnetic Non-Contact Safety Switch, 250V ac, Plastic Housing, NC, 2m Cable

Optimise protection for personnel by securing vital safe-access to dangerous machinery with the 440N-G02001 Ferrogard Non-Contact Safety Switch by Allen Bradley Guardmaster. This interlock switch has high reliability and tolerance to guard misalignment, providing enhanced guard locking that gives you peace-of-mind.

This unit is a magnetically actuated non-contact interlock switch which is designed to be installed on a machine guard door. When the safety barrier is opened the magnetic actuator is withdrawn from the switch, which opens the NC safety contacts and isolates power to the machine. This ensures that operators cannot access a hazardous area where machinery is in motion, minimising risk of injury and downtime.

The 440N-G02001 Ferrogard switch has a 2m cable and FRS1 rectangular housing. The housing is made of moulded ABS plastic in red for easy visibility of the switch. It has 1NC safety contact and the switching capability is 250V ac, 2A max. It has ingress protection at IP67, ensuring that it is water-tight and dust-proof. The switching distance is 12mm (make), 23mm (break). The Ferrogard safety switches have protected safety contacts to ensure that they do not fail to danger. They also have internal non-resettable overload protection on the safety contact.

• High tolerance to safety guard door misalignment
• Non-contact actuation ensures less wear-and-tear and longer service life
• Sealed to IP67 (NEMA6P) - perfectly suited for use in wash-down environments
• M4 mountable in any position for application flexibility
• High switching current

Note: This device can be used with Guardlink, a new safety linking technology from Allen Bradley Guardmaster. Guardlink simplifies and reduces the connection time of the safety system, whilst providing real-time diagnostic information over Ethernet IP. This makes it simple to identify the location of the device that has tripped the system, thus reducing downtime, and improving the machines overall efficiency. For more details, please go to the Guardlink brochure.

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 guards and doors to restrict access to unsafe areas. They are often used in industrial environments, such as in factory production lines.
