This safety hinge switch is fitted to hinged guards to detect door position as part of a machine safety circuit, connecting via an M12 connector for straightforward panel wiring. It mounts directly on the hinge axis, allowing guard monitoring without additional actuators projecting from the door. Typical applications include hinged access doors and covers on industrial machinery where guard status must be confirmed before operation is permitted.
