Carlo Gavazzi's MC36C Series compact safety magnetic sensors, designed for safety-related applications, such as the monitoring of swinging, sliding or removable safety guards. The MC36C series of magnetically-coded REED safety magnetic sensors are a solution to monitor the position of sliding, hinged and removable safety guards. According to Carlo Gavazzi, the MC36C magnetic sensors are suited for use in applications where great tolerances are required, such as with safety gates or doors which are imprecisely aligned.

The MC36C series are versatile and can work as standalone or in conjunction with a safety module to reach a safety category 4, according to the EN ISO 13849-1 Standard. 

The MC46C safety magnetic sensors are capable of non-contact detection and are suitable to monitor safety gates that prevent the entry of personnel in the vicinity of dangerous machines in motion, such as conveyors, robots and mechanical links.
