Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH1O1CLM5 Safety Magnetic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH1O1CLM5 is a compact safety magnetic sensor designed for reliable monitoring of hinged, sliding and removable machine guards in industrial safety applications. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi MC36C safety magnetic sensor series, this coded non-contact safety switch provides 1NO + 1NC reed contact outputs and an integrated M8 connector for secure connection to safety control systems.
The MC36CH1O1CLM5 uses coded magnetic actuator technology to detect guard position without mechanical contact, providing long service life and resistance to dust, dirt and harsh industrial environments. The compact rectangular housing allows flexible installation on machine doors, access panels and safety guarding systems.
Designed for use with the appropriate MC36CM coded actuator and a suitable safety logic module, this sensor can support machine safety systems up to Category 4, Performance Level e (PL e) according to EN ISO 13849-1.

Reliable Safety Monitoring for Industrial Machinery
Safety magnetic sensors such as the Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH1O1CLM5 provide dependable guard position monitoring without physical contact. When the coded actuator moves away from the sensor, the safety circuit detects the opened guard condition and can stop hazardous machine movement when connected through an appropriate safety controller.
The MC36C series is designed for industrial environments where traditional mechanical switches may experience wear or contamination. The sealed magnetic design provides reliable operation for machine tools, conveyors, robotic systems and production equipment.
Typical Applications
- Machine guard and safety door monitoring.
- Industrial automation equipment.
- Robotic cells and production lines.
- Conveyors and material handling systems.
- Machine tools and processing equipment.
- Secure area access monitoring systems.
