PSENmech Mechanical Safety Switches

Safe monitoring of movable guards with the PSENmech

PSENmech mechanical safety switches are perfectly suited for the safe monitoring of a movable guard . If the protective devices are opened, the PSENmech safety switches are triggered. The dangerous movement of the machine is interrupted by the control unit from Pilz.

PSENmech safety switches prevent unintentional opening of the movable guard by means of a higher extraction force of the actuator. Thanks to their mechanically adapted actuator, they comply with EN ISO 14119 (protection against override).
