MC88CH2ORT1L – SAFETY MAGNETIC SENSOR RIGHT 2NO PIGTAIL LED

Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH2ORT1L Safety Magnetic Sensor?

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88CH2ORT1L is a robust safety magnetic sensor with LED indication designed for non-contact monitoring of guards, doors and protective covers on industrial machinery. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi MC88C safety magnetic sensor series, this model combines a right-hand exit, 2NO dry reed contact outputs and a short PVC pigtail terminating in an M12 connector for convenient integration into compatible machine safety systems.

The MC88CH2ORT1L uses magnetic sensing to monitor the position of a corresponding MC88C actuator without requiring physical contact between the sensor and actuator. When a protected guard is opened or displaced, the sensor contacts change state for evaluation by the associated safety control equipment. Its non-contact operating principle helps minimise mechanical wear, while integrated LED indication provides useful visual status feedback.

This model features a 0.1 m PVC pigtail with M12 connector, 2NO reed contacts, a 18 mm switch-on distance and a 30 mm switch-off distance. The contacts support a maximum switching voltage of 12/24 V AC/DC, maximum switching current of 250 mA and maximum switching power of 6 W. With an IP67 protection rating and operating temperature range of -25 to +80 °C, the MC88CH2ORT1L is designed for dependable industrial machine safety applications.

Flexible Non-Contact Machine Guard Monitoring

Magnetic safety sensors provide non-contact monitoring of movable guards by detecting a corresponding magnetic actuator. When a guard moves away from its protected position, the sensor contacts change state for evaluation by compatible safety control equipment. Because the sensing operation does not rely on a mechanically actuated switch, it helps reduce physical wear in applications where guards and access doors are opened frequently.

The Carlo Gavazzi MC88C platform offers several coded magnetic actuators to accommodate different assured 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. The MC88CM3 therefore provides the corresponding actuator configuration where the 18 mm switch-on and 30 mm switch-off distances are required.
