Schmersal Coded Actuator

Schmersal BNS40S Non Contact Safety Switch

The BNS40S is a stainless steel non-contact safety switch that is ideal for use in the food and beverage industry. It is hygiene-compliant and can easily be integrated into the surrounding construction due to its compact design.
The stainless steel enclosure of the BNS 40S is resistant to corrosion and cleaning liquids. Sealed to protection class IP69K, the enclosure was also designed to prevent the formation of dust traps and pockets where dirt can settle. Other features are the very large temperature range and the easy-to-clean door hinge. The large switching distance enables a concealed mounting of the switch behind non-ferromagnetic covers.
The BNS 40S 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 can be actuated from two sides, the new magnetic safety switch can be flexibly fitted. Where required, a magnetic latching option is also available.
The mounting dimensions and switching distances of the BNS 40S are identical to those of the tried-and-tested BNS 33S. The user can therefore replace an existing BNS 33S with a new stainless steel sensor without needing to change the surrounding construction.
