Why Choose the Pizzato SR AD42ALK-X Magnetic Safety Sensor?
The Pizzato SR AD42ALK-X is a compact coded magnetic safety sensor designed for reliable non-contact monitoring of guards, doors and protective covers on industrial machinery. Part of the Pizzato SR-A Series, it uses Reed-contact switching technology and coded magnetic actuation to provide dependable guard position monitoring without mechanical contact.
The SR AD42ALK-X features a 1NO + 1NC contact configuration with the protective guard closed. Its non-contact magnetic operating principle helps minimise mechanical wear during frequent guard operation, while the coded actuator system makes the sensor suitable for safety-related machine guarding applications when incorporated into an appropriately designed safety circuit.
This version has a 4-pole M8 connector positioned on the right-hand side of its compact technopolymer housing. The sensor is supplied without an actuator, allowing the appropriate Pizzato SR-A coded actuator to be selected separately, while its IP67 protection rating supports installation in demanding industrial machinery environments.

Reliable Non-Contact Guard Monitoring
Coded magnetic safety sensors monitor the position of movable machine guards without requiring physical engagement between the sensor and actuator. When the appropriate coded actuator is correctly positioned within the sensor's operating range, the Reed contacts change state so that the condition of the protective guard can be evaluated by a compatible machine safety control system.
The Pizzato SR-A Series is well suited to machinery where frequent guard movement, contamination or limited mounting space can make mechanically actuated switches less practical. The M8 connector on the SR AD42ALK-X also supports straightforward connection and replacement, while the compact sensor housing enables installation on a wide variety of machine guarding arrangements.
