MCC stocking Bernstein Electronic Magnetic Sensors

Bernstein is one of the world‘s leading providers of industrial safety technology delivering solutions in lift, construction, automotive, plant/machinery construction and automation engineering industries.

The BERNSTEIN range of teachable electronic magnetic sensors combines two programmable switching points and fully integrated electronics in an enclosure that boasts the smallest dimensions in its class. This highly compact design allows the intelligent sensor to be fully recessed in standard T and C-slots (e. g. FESTO or SMC), providing maximum protection for the integrated electronics within an IP67 rated enclosure.

When the easy to use teaching tool is placed over the installed sensor, it automatically selects programming mode and the two switching points can then be set at the push of a button. The two LEDs on the sensor then serve as function indicators, providing information onthe programming status and displaying signal faults. This helps prevent unintentional changes to the settings whilst retaining the safety class rating.

Advantages

• Fully integrated electronic solution
• Permanent protection rating
• No need to mount additional electronics
• Fully immersed and therefore protected installation in the slot
• Suitable for standard C and T-slots
• Available as cable or plug version
• Only takes up one slot
• Two freely programmable switching points
• Straightforward teach-in procedure
• Reduced installation and wiring requirements
• Top-mounted
• High switching accuracy
