## **Note** 

Note (General) Series-wiring of sensors: 16 safety sensors can be switched in series with selfmonitoring. In this case, the dual-channel output of a sensor is switched to/inserted into the input of the next sensor. This does not affect the category 4 in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1. The voltage drop over a long sensor chain should be taken into account when planning cable routing. Operating voltage, cross-section and length of the cable, temperature, number of sensors connected, but also the input load of the control monitor all affect the voltage drop over the sensor chain.

Stock Shortage Specialist

When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.

Compliant Alternatives

We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
