Two-hand control safeCAP SC3x (in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1, EN ISO 13851)

Description

The newest generation of capacitive two-hand controls

The SC3x series is the newest generation of the proven CAPTRON safeCAP two-hand controls and the direct successor to the SC4 series. It has been specially developed for applications where maximum safety, ergonomic operation and long-term reliability are required - such as punching machines, presses and other machines with a high risk of injury.

Force-free operation - noticeable relief for employees

Thanks to capacitive sensor technology, no pressure is required - actuation is force-free. This reduces strain on the wrists and noticeably improves ergonomics. It can also be operated reliably when wearing work gloves.

Extremely durable and robust - no failures, no replacement necessary

The buttons are fully encapsulated (IP68) and therefore protected against water, oil, dust and impact. The sensor technology is wear-free and designed for several hundred million switching cycles - ideal for continuous industrial use. Maintenance effort? Practically zero.

Safe and certified for Type III C applications

  • Single-channel (NO) and dual-channel (NO/NC) variants available
  • 5-pin and 8-pin variant
  • Compatible with all common safety PLCs and switching devices
  • Certified according to EN ISO 13849-1 (Cat. 4, PLe) & EN ISO 13851
