Schmersal BPS 40S-1-C 101215266

The BPS 40S-1-C is a robust position switch designed for use in various industrial applications, known for its durability and precision in monitoring the position of movable machine components or safety guards.Key Features:Position Monitoring: This device is primarily used for monitoring the positions of movable machine components, guards, or doors. It is equipped with a robust actuator and sensor, ensuring accurate and reliable position detection.Compact Design: The BPS 40S-1-C features a compact and space-saving design, making it suitable for installations in tight spaces or where size constraints are a concern.Stainless Steel Housing: Its stainless steel housing provides excellent resistance to harsh environmental conditions, ensuring longevity and reliability in demanding industrial environments.Technical Specifications:Operating Principle: The BPS 40S-1-C operates on a mechanical principle. When the actuator (typically a metal target) moves within its sensing range, it triggers the switch's output signal, indicating a change in position.Sensing Range: The sensor has a defined sensing range within which it can accurately detect the actuator's presence or absence. Proper actuator placement is critical for precise operation.Contact Configuration: This switch features specific contact configurations, which can include normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC) contacts, depending on the application's requirements.Applications:The BPS 40S-1-C is commonly used in industrial environments where safety and precise position monitoring are essential. It ensures that machinery operations only occur when guards or machine components are correctly positioned, reducing the risk of accidents. Typical applications include manufacturing, materials handling, automation, and more.Note: Proper installation and alignment of the BPS 40S-1-C position switch are critical to its reliable operation. Always refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for accurate setup and use in your specific application.
