Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH1O1CRM5L Safety Magnetic Sensor?
The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH1O1CRM5L is a robust non-contact safety magnetic sensor with LED indication designed for monitoring hinged, sliding and removable guards on industrial machinery. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic sensor series, this model combines a right-exit configuration, 1 normally open plus 1 normally closed (1NO+1NC) reed contacts and an integrated M8 connector.
The MC88CH1O1CRM5L uses magnetic, contact-free actuation to detect the position of a compatible magnetic actuator. This eliminates the mechanical engagement required by conventional safety switches, helping reduce wear in applications where machine guards are opened and closed frequently. The integrated LED status indicator also provides convenient visual indication during operation, commissioning and troubleshooting.
Designed for industrial environments, the MC88CH1O1CRM5L has an IP67 protection rating and an operating temperature range of -25 to +80 °C. Its reed contacts support a maximum switching current of 250 mA and maximum switching power of 6 W, while the integrated M8 connector simplifies connection to compatible machine wiring.

Reliable Non-Contact Safety Guard Monitoring
Magnetic safety sensors provide position monitoring without requiring direct mechanical engagement between the sensor and actuator. This operating principle is well suited to industrial guards and access points that undergo frequent movement, as the absence of mechanical switching contact helps reduce physical wear and supports dependable long-term operation.
The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH1O1CRM5L combines 1NO+1NC switching, LED status indication and an integrated M8 connection in a compact rectangular housing. Its protected switching distances allow the sensor to accommodate practical alignment tolerances when used with the appropriate MC88 actuator, making it a versatile solution for industrial machine safety systems.
