Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC88CM1 Safety Magnetic Actuator?

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CM1 is a compact coded safety magnetic actuator designed for use with Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic sensors in industrial machine guard monitoring applications. As part of the MC88C safety switch system, this actuator provides reliable non-contact activation for hinged, sliding and removable safety guards.

The MC88CM1 uses coded magnetic technology to operate together with compatible MC88CH safety sensors, enabling contact-free switching without mechanical wear. Its rectangular plastic housing provides a robust and compact solution for safety gate and protective door monitoring in industrial environments.

With an assured operating distance of 5 mm, assured switch-off distance of 15 mm and an IP69K protection rating, the MC88CM1 is suitable for demanding machine safety installations requiring dependable actuator performance.

Key Advantages

  • Coded magnetic actuator designed for MC88C safety magnetic sensors.
  • Non-contact operation eliminates mechanical actuator wear.
  • 5 mm assured switching distance for reliable guard position detection.
  • IP69K rectangular housing suitable for demanding industrial environments.
  • Compact design simplifies installation on machine guards and safety doors.
  • Supports safety systems up to Category 4 and Performance Level e when combined with suitable safety logic.

Key Features

  • Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic actuator series.
  • Rectangular plastic actuator housing.
  • Assured operating distance (Sao): 5 mm.
  • Assured switch-off distance (Sar): 15 mm.
  • IP69K protection rating.
  • Designed for use with MC88CH coded magnetic safety sensors.
  • Contact-free magnetic activation for long operational life.
  • Suitable for safety gate and guard door applications.

Reliable Safety Actuation for Industrial Automation

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CM1 actuator works together with MC88CH safety magnetic sensors to create a reliable non-contact guard monitoring system. When the actuator moves away from the sensor, the safety circuit detects guard opening and can stop hazardous machine movements through suitable safety control equipment.

The coded magnetic design provides reliable operation in environments where dust, dirt and mechanical movement may affect conventional safety switches. The MC88C system is widely suited to machine builders requiring compact and durable safety interlocking solutions.

Typical Applications

  • Safety gate and guard door monitoring systems.
  • Industrial machine safety interlocking.
  • Packaging and production machinery.
  • Machine tools and automated processing equipment.
  • Protective cover and access panel monitoring.
  • OEM machine safety applications.
