Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH1O1CRM5L Safety Magnetic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH1O1CRM5L is a compact MC36C series safety magnetic sensor with LED indication, designed for non-contact monitoring of guards, doors and other movable protective equipment on industrial machinery. It combines magnetic actuation with 1NO + 1NC reed contacts, providing complementary switching outputs for integration into compatible machine-safety systems.
This model features a right-exit configuration and an integrated M8 connector, providing a compact and service-friendly installation. The built-in LED indicator gives useful visual status indication at the sensor, while the specified 5 mm switch-on distance and 15 mm switch-off distance support reliable guard-position detection when used with the appropriate magnetic actuator.
Designed for industrial environments, the MC36CH1O1CRM5L has an IP67 degree of protection and operates across a temperature range of -25 to +80 °C. Its outputs support a maximum switching voltage of 12/24 V AC/DC, maximum switching current of 250 mA and maximum switching power of 6 W, making it a practical solution for compact non-contact machine-safety applications.
Key Advantages
- Non-contact magnetic safety sensing helps minimise mechanical wear during repeated guard operation.
- 1NO + 1NC reed contacts provide complementary switching outputs.
- Integrated LED indication provides convenient visual sensor status information.

LED-Equipped Non-Contact Safety Guard Monitoring
The Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH1O1CRM5L operates with a compatible magnetic actuator to monitor the position of movable guards without requiring direct mechanical contact. When the actuator enters or leaves the defined sensing region, the sensor's reed contacts change state, allowing the associated safety-control circuitry to monitor guard position.
The integrated LED provides local visual indication, while the M8 connector simplifies field connection and servicing. Carlo Gavazzi identifies the MC36CM as the corresponding safety magnetic actuator for the MC36C family, providing a compact sensor-and-actuator arrangement for industrial guard-monitoring applications.
Typical Applications
- Machine safety guard monitoring.
- Hinged safety doors and access panels.
- Sliding and removable machine guards.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Automated production and assembly equipment.
- Industrial safety systems requiring non-contact magnetic position monitoring.
