Overview
The Allen-Bradley 440N-S32032 Guardmaster Sipha coded safety sensor is a magnetically actuated non-contact interlock switch built for demanding industrial safety applications. This S12 model features rectangular molded ABS red plastic construction with integrated switch and actuator, providing 1 normally-closed and 1 normally-open safety contact plus 1 normally-closed auxiliary contact. The 10-meter cable enables flexible installation distances while maintaining safety-rated circuit integrity when connected to a Sipha control unit.
Key Features
- Magnetic coded sensing with sequence-triggered mechanism prevents bypass by simple magnet
- IP67-rated sensor head and actuator withstand steam cleaning and high-pressure washing
- Dual-channel configuration (1 N.C. & 1 N.O. safety contacts) enables high-integrity system design
- Compact molded ABS housing (45×25×12mm) with molded-in mounting brackets for quick installation
- 10-meter cable for extended reach in modular machine and guarding applications
- Supports multiple sensor connection to single Sipha control unit for complex guarding logic
