Telemecanique Sensors - XCSTE5342 - Safety Interlock Switch with Solenoid
The Telemecanique Sensors XCSTE5342 is a safety interlock switch designed to enhance machine safety by monitoring the position of protective guards, such as doors or gates, and controlling access to hazardous areas. This switch features a solenoid-operated locking mechanism that ensures the guard remains locked until it is safe to access the protected area.
Key Features:
• Solenoid Locking Mechanism: Locks the protective guard when the solenoid is de-energized and unlocks upon energization, preventing unintended access during machine operation.
• Contact Configuration: Equipped with one normally closed (NC) and one normally open (NO) slow-break contact, providing reliable status signals for safety circuits.
• Robust Construction: Constructed with a polyamide (PA) body and head, offering durability and resistance to industrial environments.
• High Safety Ratings: Achieves up to Category 4 and Performance Level e (PL e) according to ISO 13849-1, and Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL 3) per IEC 61508, when properly integrated.
• Environmental Protection: Rated IP67, ensuring protection against dust and temporary immersion in water.
