Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC88CM2 Safety Magnetic Actuator?

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CM2 is a compact coded safety magnetic actuator designed for use with Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic sensors in industrial machine guarding and safety interlocking applications. As part of the MC88C safety magnetic sensor system, it provides reliable non-contact activation for hinged, sliding and removable machine guards.

The MC88CM2 uses coded magnetic technology to operate together with compatible MC88CH safety sensors, providing dependable switching without mechanical contact or actuator wear. Its robust rectangular housing design makes it suitable for demanding industrial automation environments where reliable safety monitoring is required.

With an assured operating distance of 8 mm and compatibility with Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH safety magnetic sensors, the MC88CM2 provides a dependable actuator solution for machine safety applications requiring precise guard position detection.

Key Advantages

  • Coded magnetic actuator designed for Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety sensors.
  • Non-contact operation eliminates mechanical wear and improves service life.
  • 8 mm assured switching distance for reliable guard position monitoring.
  • Compact rectangular design simplifies installation on machine guards and safety doors.
  • Suitable for demanding industrial safety applications.
  • Supports safety solutions up to Category 4 and Performance Level e when combined with suitable safety control equipment.

Key Features

  • Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic actuator series.
  • Coded magnetic activation technology.
  • Assured operating distance (Sao): 8 mm.
  • Designed for use with MC88CH coded safety magnetic sensors.
  • Contact-free switching principle.

Reliable Safety Actuation for Industrial Automation

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CM2 actuator works together with MC88CH safety magnetic sensors to create a reliable non-contact guard monitoring system. When the actuator moves away from the sensor, the safety circuit detects guard opening and can initiate a safe machine stop through suitable safety control equipment.

The coded magnetic design provides reliable operation in industrial environments where dust, contamination and mechanical movement can affect conventional safety switches. The MC88C system offers a compact and durable solution for machine builders requiring dependable safety interlocking.

Typical Applications

  • Safety gate and guard door monitoring systems.
  • Industrial machine safety interlocking.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • Machine tools and automated processing equipment.
  • Protective cover monitoring applications.
  • OEM machine safety systems.
