The FS-K-D Series Proximity Switch (M18 Thread) is highly versatile and can be used in a multitude of applications where a reliable signal is required. Utilising proven magnetic technology enables them to sense ferrous material, such as carbon steel or stainless steel (17/4 or 400 series) at up to 2.3mm (0.09"). Volt free DPCO/DPDT (2x Form C) contacts as standard.
The FS-K-D Series is covered by the following hazardous area certifications.
Explosion Proof: - IECEx & ATEX Exd (Zone 1 & Zone 21)
Intrinsically Safe: - IECEx & ATEX Exia (Zone 0 & Zone 20) ¦ UL/CSA IS (Zone 0)
Other Regional Approvals Include: - EAC/TRCU, INMETRO, KCs, CCOE/PESO, ECAS ex, NEPSI/CQST
The FS-K-D series proximity switches meet the requirements of IEC 61508:2010 Routes 1H & 1S with Systematic Capability (SC3) as an element/subsystem, and are suitable for use in safety related systems performing safety functions up to and including SIL 2 with HFT=0 (1oo1) and SIL 3 with HFT =1 (1oo2).
