Schmersal BP 20 S 101057541

The BP 20 S is a safety switch designed for industrial applications, known for its reliability and durability. Its key features and technical specifications include:Design: The BP 20 S is a compact, heavy-duty safety switch suitable for use in demanding industrial environments.Contacts: This safety switch features slow-action, positive-break NC and NO contacts. These contacts ensure a reliable interruption of electrical circuits when the switch is actuated.Actuator: The switch operates using a separate actuator (not included). The actuator is typically attached to a moving part of a machine, and when the actuator is displaced or released, it triggers the switch.Enclosure: The BP 20 S is housed in a robust metal enclosure, providing protection against mechanical impact and environmental factors.Mounting: It can be easily mounted on a variety of surfaces, including machine frames, doors, and access panels.Voltage: The BP 20 S is suitable for a range of supply voltages, making it adaptable to different industrial systems.Usage:The BP 20 S safety switch is commonly used in industrial machinery and manufacturing equipment to ensure the safety of personnel and the integrity of machines and processes. When properly installed and integrated into safety circuits and controllers, it helps prevent accidents by halting machine operations when predetermined conditions, such as the opening of a protective door or access panel, are met.Applications:Machine Safety: It is widely used in machinery safety applications to stop machine operation and prevent accidents when safety-critical conditions are violated.Access Control: The BP 20 S can be applied to control access to hazardous areas, ensuring that a machine operates only when safety doors are securely closed.Process Interruption: In manufacturing processes, it can be integrated into control systems to interrupt processes if specific safety conditions are violated.Conveyor Systems: This safety switch is suitable for conveyor systems to ensure that the conveyor stops if any access points are opened during operation.In summary, the BP 20 S is a heavy-duty safety switch with NC and NO contacts, designed for use in demanding industrial environments where safety and machine integrity are critical. Its robust construction and adaptability to different voltages make it a versatile choice for safety-critical systems.
