Why Choose the Pizzato SR BD40AN1 Safety Magnetic Sensor?
The Pizzato SR BD40AN1 is a robust coded magnetic safety sensor designed for reliable non-contact monitoring of guards, doors and access points on industrial machinery. As part of the Pizzato SR B series, it combines a durable technopolymer housing with stainless steel fixing plates and magnetically operated reed contacts for dependable machine safety applications.
The SR BD40AN1 features a 2NC contact configuration with the guard closed and is intended for operation with a compatible coded magnetic actuator. Its non-contact sensing principle eliminates direct mechanical interaction between the sensor and actuator, helping reduce wear and providing reliable monitoring for frequently operated machine guards.
This version is supplied with an integrated 1 m oil-resistant PVC cable and provides IP67 and IP69K protection. The robust construction and high degree of environmental protection make the SR BD40AN1 suitable for demanding industrial automation, production and machine-building environments.

Reliable Non-Contact Safety Monitoring for Industrial Machinery
Coded magnetic safety sensors such as the Pizzato SR BD40AN1 monitor the position of movable machine guards without requiring direct mechanical contact. A compatible coded magnetic actuator fitted to the guard operates the sensor's reed contacts when correctly positioned, allowing the connected safety control system to monitor whether the protected access point is closed.
The non-contact operating principle reduces mechanical wear and makes the SR B series particularly suitable for frequently operated doors, covers and guards. When incorporated into an appropriately designed safety circuit, the SR BD40AN1 can support safety functions up to PL e according to EN ISO 13849-1 and SIL 3 according to IEC 61508.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guard monitoring.
- Safety doors and protective access panels.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Conveyors and material handling equipment.
- Automated manufacturing cells.
- Machine tools and processing equipment.
- OEM machinery and industrial safety systems.
