SICK i16 Series Safety Switch, IP67, 2A Switch Contact Current - i16-SA205

This safety switch is an electro-mechanical interlock designed to monitor guards and access points in industrial environments. Built for hygienic and robust installations, it connects via an M12 4‑pin plug and interfaces with safety logic for fault detection. The unit operates across a wide ambient temperature range and is rated for environments requiring dust‑tight, water‑resistant performance.

Features and Benefits:

• IP67 enclosure rating provides protection in wet environments
• 2A switch contact current supports common control circuits
• 2 NC safety contacts deliver positive‑action switching
• Glass Fibre reinforced PBT housing resists mechanical stress
• -20°C to 80°C operating range suits varied ambient conditions

Applications

• Suitable for machine guard monitoring in manufacturing lines
• Ideal for integration with safety relays and controllers
• Used with conveyor access Gates requiring weather resistance
• Can be used for packaging equipment requiring positive‑action contacts

What type of electrical connection does it use?

It employs a plug connector M12 4‑pin with a nickel‑plated brass coupling nut.

How is fault detection handled in safety circuits?

The switch lacks internal fault detection so the connected safety logic unit performs diagnostics.

What switching principle and category apply to its contacts?

It uses a slow‑action switching element and is suitable for DC‑13 usage category.

What are the mechanical durability and expected switching life?

Mechanical life is specified as 1x10^6 switching cycles with a B10d of 2x10^6 for small loads.

Are actuators supplied with the device?

No actuator is included with delivery.
