Features and principle of operation

The IN4000 Direct series safety sensors are typically
used for safe position detection, as is the case, e.g.,
when monitoring a movable guard. The sensor detects
the presence or absence of metal. To address require-
ments to prevent simple tampering, the switching
range of the sensor is monitored spatially and over
time.
Using LEDs an indication of status can be read directly
on the sensor. Errors, for example a short circuit or
cable break are detected by the sensor's self-
monitoring.
The safety sensor can be connected directly to a safe
PLC.
