Housed in corrosion resistant stainless steel housing, the BNS 40S magnetic safety switch from Schmersal is protected to IP 69K. Designed to prevent formation of dust traps and pockets, it is resistant to cleaning liquids and is high-pressure cleaner proof.  The module meets all the requirements of the “Hygienic Design” and can also be used in wet areas. Its cables have been selected in accordance with the FDA requirements and the sensor is UL and ECOLAB certified. As the actuator may be activated from two sides, the magnetic safety switch can be flexibly fitted. As an accessory, a magnetic latching is available. The BNS 40S completes the BNS series, which is frequently used on food production machinery and plants. The mounting dimensions and switching distances of the BNS 40S are identical to those of the tried-and-tested BNS 33S, which can be replaced without the need to change the surrounding construction. Additional features include wide temperature range and the easy-to-clean door hinge. The wide switching distance enables a concealed mounting of the switch behind non-ferromagnetic covers.
