Continuous investment in manufacturing automation brings with it a corresponding demand for increasingly sophisticated controls. Since modern factories often run ‘lights-out’ with minimal human oversight, ensuring the safety of operational personnel is always a priority. In the era of Industry 4.0, built-in protection for staff assumes ever-greater importance in automated process-control system design; ultra-reliable, maintenance-free safety devices must maintain safe working conditions at all times, and especially when physical intervention is required.
The new YSM and YSR series of magnetic and RFID safety sensors from Contrinex offer new possibilities to process engineers who need affordable, versatile, high-performance safety sensors for door monitoring and related applications. These extremely compact, ECOLAB®-certified devices, rated up to EN/ISO 13849-1 Category 4, Performance Level (PL) e, are ideal for hazardous installations as diverse as robotic cells, industrial presses, laser cutters and welders, food-processing equipment, injection molding machines and automated packaging lines.
