Product Description

Product Overview

The 3SE5312-0SB11 is a SIRIUS mechanical safety position switch with tumbler featuring a locking force of 2600 N, 5 directions of approach, and solenoid-locked operation. This safety switch operates on 24 V DC magnet voltage and provides monitoring capabilities for both actuator (2 NC/1 NO) and magnet (2 NC/1 NO). The device is supplied without actuator - Actuator 3SE5000-0AV0 must be ordered separately. This safety position switch is designed for position monitoring of moving protection equipment to ensure protective doors, covers, or protective flaps remain closed during hazardous operations.

Key Features & Specifications

  • Safety Function: Solenoid-locked safety position switch with tumbler
  • Locking Force: 2600 N (high holding force)
  • Approach Directions: 5 directions of approach for flexible installation
  • Magnet Voltage: 24 V DC
  • Contact Configuration:
    • Monitoring actuator: 2 NC/1 NO
    • Monitoring magnet: 2 NC/1 NO
  • Housing Material: Metal enclosure

Technical Data

  • Sensor Dimensions: 54mm width x 43.5mm height x 185mm length
  • Operating Temperature: -25°C to +85°C
  • Net Weight: 0.969 kg
  • Rated Control Supply Voltage: 24 V DC (magnet drive)
  • Number of Safety Auxiliary Contacts: 4
  • Guard Locking Force: 2600 N
  • Housing Design: Metal construction for durability

Contact Performance

  • AC Operation:
    • 6A at 24V (AC-15)
  • DC Operation:
    • 3A at 24V (DC-13)
    • 0.55A at 125V (DC-13)
  • Contact Arrangement:
    • 2 Normally Closed (NC) contacts for actuator monitoring
    • 1 Normally Open (NO) contact for actuator monitoring
    • 2 Normally Closed (NC) contacts for magnet monitoring
    • 1 Normally Open (NO) contact for magnet monitoring

Safety Features

  • Electromagnetic Tumbler: Integrated auxiliary magnet keeps doors locked until specific signal received
  • Anti-Defeat Protection: 3D-coded actuators prevent manipulation
  • Manual Release: Auxiliary release mechanism for emergency access during power failure
  • Separate Position Sensing: Independent monitoring for both magnet and protective door
  • Safety Mechanism: Prevents unwanted closing - NC contacts of magnet never close when door is open
  • LED Status Indication: Optical status monitoring available

Standards & Compliance

  • Safety Standards: PL e or SIL 3 capability with proper configuration
  • Approvals: Worldwide approval (IEC, UL)
  • Actuator Rotation: 4x90 degrees rotation capability
  • Mounting: Screwless mounting system for actuator heads
  • Country of Origin: Germany
  • RoHS Compliance: Since: 01.10.2011

Applications

The 3SE5312-0SB11 is specifically designed for protective doors that must remain closed while a machine is being shut down. Ideal applications include industrial machinery guards, safety gates, access panels, and protective enclosures where high locking force and fail-safe operation are critical. The solenoid locking ensures doors remain secured until receiving the appropriate unlock signal, making it perfect for applications requiring power-to-unlock functionality.

Important Notes

  • Actuator Required: Actuator 3SE5000-0AV0 must be ordered separately
  • Coded Actuators: Only works with separately coded 3D actuators for enhanced security
  • Power Requirements: 24 V DC supply required for magnet operation
  • Installation: Five approach directions provide flexible mounting options
  • Emergency Access: Manual auxiliary release mechanism included
