SICK RE13 Safety Interlock Switch, Magnet, Vistal, Magnet

This safety interlock switch is a non-contact magnetic sensor designed to monitor the position of guards and access points in industrial settings. It operates with reed outputs and connects via an M12 4-pin cable, offering a Compact form factor suitable for integration into machine safety systems. The device provides functional compatibility with series connection diagnostics and is intended for use where environmental sealing and a wide operating temperature range are required.

• IP67 enclosure rating for use in wet or dusty environments
• Reed contact outputs providing switching at ≤30VDC
• Flexi Loop compatible for series connection with diagnostics
• Actuation detection with 7mm assured switch-on distance
• Vistal housing offering robust mechanical resistance

• Suitable for safeguarding access doors on production lines
• Ideal for integration with safety logic units in machines
• Used with magnetic actuators for contactless guard monitoring
• Can be used for conveyor guarding where cable routing is constrained
• Used for perimeter protection in automated assembly cells

The switch uses reed contacts rated for switching voltages up to 30VDC and switching currents up to 100mA.

It connects via a 0.5m M12 4‑pin cable with 0.25mm² conductors and a nickel‑plated brass coupling nut.

The unit tolerates vibration at 10Hz to 55Hz with 1mm amplitude and shock up to 30g for 11 ms.

The switch lacks internal fault detection

The sensor supports multiple actuation directions with Active sensor surfaces and alignment marking for X, Y and Z approach.
