The Schneider 8513 is a robust safety switch designed to ensure secure operations in various industrial settings. Crafted from durable metal, this rectangular, key-operated turret head switch is part of the Telemecanique Safety switches XCS range. It features three normally closed (NC) slow-break contacts that operate simultaneously, along with a solenoid contact composition of one NC and one normally open (NO), also with slow-break, simultaneous operation.
This safety switch is equipped with two cable entries tapped for 1/2" NPT and offers electromagnet interlocking, which locks upon energisation and unlocks on de-energisation of the solenoid. The solenoid's rated supply voltage is 24 V with a tolerance of -20 to +10 percent, ensuring reliable operation even with slight voltage variations.
The Schneider 8513 is designed with a focus on safety and reliability, capable of reaching category 4, Performance Level e, and Safety Integrity Level 3 when used with the appropriate monitoring system and correct wiring, in accordance with EN/ISO 13849-1 and EN/IEC 61508 standards. It boasts a mechanical durability of 1 million cycles and can operate within a speed range of 0.01 m/s to 0.5 m/s.
The switch's electrical characteristics include a rated operational current of 0.55 A at 125 V DC-13, 0.27 A at 250 V DC-13 for DC applications, and 3 A at 120 V AC-15, 1.5 A at 240 V AC-15 for AC applications. It also features a conventional enclosed thermal current of 6 A and a rated insulation voltage of 50 V, ensuring it can handle a variety of electrical loads safely.
With an IP67 degree of protection, the Schneider 8513 is well-suited for harsh environments, offering resistance to dust and water ingress. It operates effectively within a temperature range of -25 to 40°C and can withstand significant vibration and shock, as per IEC standards.
The Schneider 8513 is a Green Premium product, reflecting its compliance with environmental regulations and standards, including REACh and EU RoHS directives. It is mercury-free and provides full environmental disclosure through its Product Environmental Profile and End of Life Information.
This safety switch is an essential component for machine safety, providing reliable and secure operations in industrial applications where safety and durability are paramount.
