The portfolio includes non-contact and mechanical safety switches, safety modules, interlocking devices and electromechanical handwheels – always to the current state of safety standards EN ISO 13849 and IEC 62061.

Non-contact safety switches with RFID technology – tamper-proof up to PLe/SIL3.

Multifunctional access control with integrated locking – for machine safety guards.

Modular safety controllers for flexible evaluation of safety signals.

Mechanical and electronic position switches for precise position detection in mechanical engineering.

Integration into hinges and covers for space-saving guard monitoring.

Electronic handwheels and control elements for CNC machine tools.

Since 1953, EUCHNER has set benchmarks in safety switches – with solutions for the highest safety levels up to PLe/SIL3.

CES/CET safety switches with unique RFID coding – protection against bridging and manipulation.

MSC safety modules combine flexibly – from simple safety control to complex safety architectures.

18 own subsidiaries and 22 sales offices worldwide – local support everywhere.

CES switches are pure position sensors (without interlocking), CET devices additionally offer electromagnetic interlocking – for guards that must remain locked during operation.

Many EUCHNER products are designed and certified for PLe (the highest level per EN ISO 13849-1) and SIL3 (per IEC 62061) – suitable for the highest safety requirements.
