Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH2ORM5L Safety Magnetic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi MC36CH2ORM5L is a compact magnetic safety sensor with LED indication designed for non-contact monitoring of guards, doors and protective covers on industrial machinery. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi MC36C compact safety magnetic sensor series, this model features a right-hand sensing arrangement, 2NO dry reed contact outputs and an integrated M8 connector for convenient integration into compatible machine safety systems.
Designed for use with the corresponding MC36CM magnetic actuator, the MC36CH2ORM5L detects the position of movable machine guards without requiring physical contact between the sensor and actuator. This non-contact operating principle helps minimise mechanical wear, while the integrated LED provides convenient visual status indication for installation, operation and diagnostics.
The MC36CH2ORM5L provides a 5 mm switch-on distance and 15 mm switch-off distance, with a maximum switching voltage of 12/24 V AC/DC, maximum switching current of 250 mA and maximum switching power of 6 W. Its compact rectangular housing, integrated M8 connector, IP67 protection rating and -25 to +80 °C operating temperature range make it suitable for demanding industrial safety applications.

Reliable Non-Contact Machine Guard Monitoring
Magnetic safety sensors monitor movable machine guards by detecting the position of a corresponding magnetic actuator. When the guard moves away from its protected position, the sensor contacts change state so that the associated safety control system can initiate the required machine safety response. The non-contact operating principle eliminates the mechanical actuator wear associated with conventional electromechanical guard switches.
The Carlo Gavazzi MC36C series is designed for compact industrial safety installations where dependable operation, convenient connectivity and flexible mounting are important. The MC36CH2ORM5L combines two normally open safety contacts with LED indication and an integrated M8 connector, providing a practical solution for hinged doors, sliding guards, access panels and protective covers on automated machinery.

- Machine safety guard monitoring.
- Hinged and sliding safety doors.
- Removable machine guards and protective covers.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Automated manufacturing equipment.
- Industrial machine cells and safety enclosures.
