The RSS260 is a non contact safety switch with RFID technology whish is designed for applications in safety circuits and is used for monitoring the position of movable separating safety guards. In addition to its compact design and high protection against tampering, it is suitable for removable, rotatable and sliding protection equipment.
The RSS260 is suitable for both installations on aluminium profiles, as well as for use on many different door sizes like the frequently used Plexiglas doors and panels. You can choose the appropriate sensor-actuator combination for your application, depending on the door and the door direction of movement. Even with the coding you have all the freedom you need and you can use the teach function as often as you want or code individually. Thanks to RFID technology, a high tamper protection is ensured despite the flexibility.

Automate the locking of your doors in the event of an emergency with this non-contact safety sensor switch from Schmersal. The switch is coded using RFID (radio frequency identification) technology, so it will only work with an actuator that uses the same frequency. This makes the switch tamperproof for enhanced safety. You can use this device in harsh industrial environments thanks to its thermoplastic housing, which is resistant to impact and heat. This material is also self-extinguishing for safety in the event of a fire.
