Schmersal Inc.

Pulse Echo Technology
Schmersal offers a range of safety devices that use our innovative pulse echo technology: The actuator oscillates at a predetermined resonant frequency when in the presence of the electromagnetic pulse emitted by the sensor, allowing the sensor to evaluate the actuator coding and distance. Each model also performs continual self diagnostics which allows multiple units to be wired in series and still meet the requirements of Control Category 4 to EN 954-1. This technology has been applied to a variety of safety switch types including non-contact sensors, keyed interlocks, solenoid-latching interlocks and an electromagnetic-latching interlock. The latest entry into this family is the CSS30S, a stainless steel, IP69K-rated non-contact safety sensor.
