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.

Key Advantages

  • Reliable coded magnetic non-contact guard monitoring.
  • 1NO + 1NC contacts with the protective guard closed.
  • 4-pole M8 connector simplifies machine wiring, installation and replacement.
  • Right-hand connector orientation for defined installation requirements.
  • Non-contact operation helps reduce mechanical wear during repeated guard movements.
  • IP67 technopolymer construction for demanding industrial environments.

Key Features

  • Pizzato SR-A Series magnetic safety sensor.
  • Coded magnetic, non-contact sensing principle.
  • 1NO + 1NC contact configuration with guard closed.
  • Reed-contact switching technology.
  • M8 connector, 4 poles.
  • Right-hand electrical connection.
  • Compact block-style sensor housing.
  • Robust technopolymer construction.
  • IP67 protection rating.
  • Suitable for safety functions when integrated into an appropriately designed safety system.
  • Sensor supplied without actuator.

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.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial machine safety guards.
  • Hinged and sliding safety doors.
  • Protective covers and removable access panels.
  • Packaging and processing machinery.
  • Automated assembly and production equipment.
  • Material handling and manufacturing systems.
