Pilz: PSENini Inductive Safety Switches

The inductive safety switches PSENini enable the safe detection of positions within a machine. They detect the approach of metallic objects without any contact, thereby supplying the necessary safe signals about positions and end limits. The inductive function principle minimises wear and increases the service life. You work safely, with high productivity. The PSENini detects positions such as end limits, for example, with safety and precision. This inductive proximity switch can also be used to generate the pulse for counting tasks or to detect rotational movements. In doing so the sensor does not need any specially coded actuators. It reacts to metals and can be integrated simply into the machine, saving space.
