Pizzato: NX series RFID safety switch with lock – GSA25 Finalist
With a volume of only 85 cm3, the RFID safety switches with lock of the NX series are the most compact on the market. Suitable for every kind of installation, even in reduced spaces, they ensure the highest safety levels PL e, SIL 3.
Thanks to their bistable operating principle, NX series safety switches enable significant reduction of energy consumption levels as the electromagnet installed in the lock does not require a continuous power supply to perform its function. Lower energy consumption means lower power dissipation and lower heating of the device.
The RFID safety switches with lock from the NX series combine a technopolymer body with a metal head, thus ensuring lightweight as well as strength and maximum reliability. The head features three inputs for the actuator, one on the front and two on the sides, which avoid the need to rotate the head or the switch itself. Just like the head, the actuator is made of metal to ensure maximum protection against impacts and resistance to tension; besides, it is articulated, thus allowing the pin to be safely guided into the switch through the centering hole, even if actuator and switch are not precisely aligned. The illuminated RGB-LED cover on the head of the switch enables an immediate diagnosis of the functional state of inputs and outputs, also from a distance.
Measuring only 30x30x94.5 mm, with a volume of 85 cm3, the RFID safety switches with lock of the NX series are the most compact on the market, confirming themselves as the perfect solution for applications in small spaces. In addition the electronic system based on RFID technology allows to provide each actuator of the NX series with different coding, thus avoiding any tampering attempt using another actuator of the same series.
