PSRswitch
The PSRswitch is an RFID coded, non-contact safety switch with a compact design. Integrated RFID transponder technology and intelligence ensures maximum protection against tampering and outstanding safety in accordance with EN ISO 14119. With compatible evaluation units and SAC cabling, Phoenix Contact provides a cost-effective, complete solution for flexible safety door and position monitoring for the digital factory.
The PSRswitch provides safe series connection of up to 30 sensors, comprehensive IO-Link diagnostic information with the PSR-MC42 safety relay, and maximum protection against tampering with three RFID encoding levels. Encoding levels are here and ready for approval.
Your advantages
- Safe series connection of up to 30 sensors
- Comprehensive IO-Link diagnostic information with the PSR-MC42 safety relay
- Maximum protection against tampering with three RFID encoding levels
- Consistent M12 connection technology allows convenient installation with up to an IP67-degree of protection
- Safe, cost-effective, and complete solution for the digital factory
Encoding levels
The sensor is available in three encoding levels: Unicode, Multicode, and Fixcode.
- Unicode - This sensor accepts one actuator. The actuator is taught by the user during commissioning. An unlimited number of additional actuators can be taught in, one after another. The sensors remember the previous actuator taught in and block it from being used.
- Multicode - This sensor accepts all actuators. It is not necessary to train them during commissioning.
- Fixcode - This sensor accepts a single actuator and is taught by the user during commissioning. It is not possible to teach further actuators.
With the integrated diagnostic channel, all status information (non-safety-relevant) on the connected safety switches is captured centrally at the machine control system – even with series connection.
Smart diagnostics for the networked factory
The complete Phoenix Contact safety switch system is comprised of an evaluation unit and the PSRswitch safety switches. The PSR-MC42 evaluation unit can be used as an IO-Link gateway, and can be combined with up to 30 safety switches connected in series.
