SICK i10 Safety Interlock Switch, Fibreglass Reinforced Thermoplastic

This safety interlock switch is an electromechanical device designed to monitor access points and safeguard machinery in industrial environments. It provides mechanical actuation with positive-action contacts and is intended for use where robust enclosure protection and predictable switching behaviour are required. The unit connects via an M20 cable gland and is compatible with safety logic systems that perform fault detection.

• 3A current rating provides switching for AC240V and DC24V applications
• IP66 enclosure protects against dust ingress and powerful water jets
• Glass-fibre reinforced thermoplastic housing resists mechanical wear
• Four-direction actuator allows flexible actuation alignment
• Positive-action N/C contacts ensure defined breaking behaviour

• Suitable for safety guards on production machinery
• Ideal for conveyor access point monitoring
• Used with safety controllers for monitored switching
• Appropriate for enclosed washdown areas requiring high ingress protection

It uses slow-action switching elements with two positive-action N/C contacts and one N/O contact.

Fault detection must be performed by the connected safety-rated logic unit because the switch has no internal fault monitoring.

It is rated for ambient operation and storage between -25°C and +80°C.

The device has a mechanical life rated at 10x10^6 switching cycles with small loads.
