EPINUS 2K 72 - SAFETY SWITCH WITH MAGNETIC HOLD IN STAINLESS 316L

CODED SAFETY SWITCH WITH 2Kg HOLDING FORCE- SS316L HOUSING - IP68

Field of application :

It is a coded magnetic sensor using our ACOTOM2AA process that detects the opening of mobile guards giving access to hazardous areas and keeps them magnetically closed. An opening/closing handle mounted on the transmitter is available as an option. The housings are made of 316L stainless steel for use in the food industry without compromise. When the transmitter is presented in front of the receiver, both semiconductor contacts close while the auxiliary contact opens. When the transmitter is no longer present then the safety contacts open and the auxiliary contact sends the supply voltage. For use in machine safety, this product must be connected to the AWAX Safety Relay.

Operation (cable outlet) :

This product is powered in 24 VDC by the AWAX box in order to comply with the ISO13849-1 standard. When the transmitter and receiver targets are aligned, the lines (red/black) and (orange/grey) are closed. The auxiliary static contact (white) opens. The separation of the two elements causes the opening of the two safety lines and the closing of the auxiliary line, thus signaling the fault to the AWAX mismatch controller. If a PLC is used, connect its input to the white wire. This type of sensor works at the transmitter/receiver contact in order to get the maximum magnetic holding.

Maximum Safety with Magnetic Hold

Built to meet EN ISO 13849-1 up to Category 4 PL e, the EPINUS 2K 72 offers reliable safety in machine guarding and automation processes. The magnetically coded actuator and robust stainless steel body ensure security against accidental bypass and tampering, making it ideal for critical industrial environments.


Versatile Industrial Application

Suitable for a range of sectors such as automation, packaging, and manufacturing, this safety switch thrives in rigorous environments. Its 72mm compact form factor with surface mounting simplifies integration into existing safety systems, while its high ingress protection rating (IP67) allows for use in dusty or wet settings.


Engineered for Reliability and Longevity

With a switching frequency of 200 operations per minute and mechanical life exceeding one million cycles, the EPINUS 2K 72 ensures sustained performance over its lifetime. Its stainless steel 316L construction and operational temperature range from -25C to +70C support durability in challenging conditions.
