MC88CH1O1CRT1L – SAFETY MAGNETIC SENSOR RIGHT 1NO+1NC PIGTAIL LED

Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH1O1CRT1L Safety Magnetic Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH1O1CRT1L is a robust coded magnetic safety sensor with LED indication designed for non-contact monitoring of hinged, sliding and removable machine guards. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic sensor series, this model combines a right-hand exit, 1NO + 1NC dry reed contacts and a short pigtail with M12 connector for straightforward integration into industrial machine safety systems.

The MC88CH1O1CRT1L uses non-contact magnetic sensing to monitor the position of a corresponding MC88C actuator. When a protected guard is opened or displaced, the sensor contact state changes so that compatible safety control equipment can initiate the required machine safety response. With no mechanical contact required between the sensor and actuator, the design helps minimise wear in frequently operated guard applications.

This LED-equipped version features a yellow status LED, a 0.1 m PVC pigtail with M12 connector and 1NO + 1NC outputs. It supports a maximum switching voltage of 12/24 V AC/DC, maximum switching current of 250 mA and maximum switching power of 6 W. The sensor is rated IP67 and operates from -25 to +80 °C, making it suitable for demanding industrial machinery and automation environments.

Flexible Non-Contact Machine Guard Monitoring

Magnetic safety sensors provide non-contact monitoring of movable guards by detecting a corresponding magnetic actuator. When the guard moves away from its protected position, the sensor contacts change state for evaluation by compatible safety control equipment. Because there is no mechanical actuator mechanism to engage, magnetic sensing is particularly useful on machine doors and guards that are operated frequently or where a degree of alignment tolerance is desirable.

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88C platform offers multiple actuator options to suit different operating distances. The MC88CM1 provides Sao/Sar distances of 5/15 mm, the MC88CM2 provides 8/18 mm, and the MC88CM3 provides 18/30 mm. For the MC88CH1O1CRT1L specification of 18 mm switch-on and 30 mm switch-off, the MC88CM3 provides the corresponding actuator configuration.
