The Schmersal BNS250 series safety sensor is a robust machine safety solution designed with a thermoplastic enclosure to ensure durability. This sensor requires an evaluation unit and features coding for secure operation. It is equipped with two openers and one shutter, while lacking semiconductor outputs, safety contacts, and fail-safe digital outputs. The active sensing area is on the front side, with a magnet as the actuating element. Connection is made simple with a terminal cable connector. Optimized for low-power applications, it operates at 24 VDC switching voltage, with a current of 0.1 A and a switching capacity of 1 W. Ideal for engineers looking for reliable machine safety components in industrial settings.
