RFID safety switches provide a reliable and innovative solution for modern machine safety. Thanks to unique RFID coding, these compact switches accurately detect whether a safety guard or door is correctly closed, effectively preventing unwanted access to moving parts.
Their robust enclosure and simple installation also make these non-contact safety switches particularly suitable for heavy industrial applications where both safety and continuity are crucial.

The ATOM lockable safety switches is resistant up to no less than 7,500 N tensile force and has a very large alignment tolerance of 7.5mm in every direction.
The enclosure is robust and manufactured entirely from steel with stainless steel 316 contact components.
This highly compact safety switch features OSSD contacts and is available with a choice of an M12 5-pin or 8-pin connector. The ATOM is suitable for use in EN ISO 13849-1, Category 4, PLe (SIL3) applications and is third-party approved by TÜV SÜD.
The conical-shaped INOX 316 actuator can resist a tensile force of 7,500 N with an alignment tolerance of 7.5mm in every direction.
The open design of the INOX head ensures trouble-free functioning in dusty, gritty and corrosive environments.
By using a multi-color LED on the bottom, the status of the safety switch can be easily read.
By providing the ATOM with a high coded RFID safety switch, it can be used as a high coded interlock in accordance with EN14119.
Atom safety interlocks are available with 4 different operating tongues, making the switch suitable for mounting on any type of door, including sliding doors and hinged doors with a small radius.
The ATOM safety switch is fitted with OSSD contacts and 2 pieces M12 5 pin plug connections, as a result of which the switches can easily be connected in daisy-chain without loss of the safety function.
When the Atom safety switch is mounted sideways, it is possible to attach a padlock through the head to prevent entrapment. During, for example, maintenance.
Our sales engineers will be happy to help you select the right RFID safety switch.
The PROTON R-Type is an advanced solenoid interlock. The PROTON uses an advanced solenoid interlocking system based on the “power to unlock” principle. This means that the interlock is unlocked when power is applied.
The PROTON features a powerful locking mechanism capable of withstanding a holding force of 2000 N. This ensures safe and reliable operation, even under heavy loads.
The PROTON is suitable for use in EN ISO 13849-1, Category 4, PLe (SIL3) applications and is third-party approved by TÜV SÜD.
Each switch contains 2 normally open and 1 normally closed output, designed to be connected to a Mechan Safety Relay (SRL-1 or EM1 & ESM) or a Safety PLC.
The fail-safe design incorporates a uniquely coded RFID signal (4 billion codes). The Proton only operates when both the actuator and the RFID signal meet the required conditions.
The actuator ensures that the Proton remains within tolerance in the event of inaccurate alignment (15 mm).
