Stainless-Steel Coded-Magnet Safety Switches Survive Washdowns


April 10, 2006

Tarrytown, New York, April 10, 2006 ... SCHMERSAL is pleased to announce the
expansion of their family of sealed, coded-magnet interlock switches to include
stainless-steel models. Each features a multiple reed switch array that can only
operate in the presence of the properly matched magnetic field.

Available with 1 NO and 2 NC contacts, and an optional LED status indicator, the
3.5" x 1" x 5/8" units are sealed to IP69K high-pressure (1,450 psi) and high temperature (80 degrees C) washdown requirements. These tamper-resistant safety
interlocks are ideal for movable safety guards in food processing and other
"washdown" applications.

When used with one of SCHMERSAL's safety controllers, the combination meets the
stringent "single component failure" requirements of ANSI's B11.19 Machine Safety
Standard.

Unit list prices begin at $150.00. Delivery from stock. For complete information and
technical literature contact Mr. Don Miller, SCHMERSAL, Inc.; 660 White Plains
