MC-S Series R C US Conforms to EN954-1, EN1088, EN60204-1 UL and C-UL listed Description The MC-S Series is a tamper re- sistant non-contact safety interlock switch that operates with its own control unit. As a fully monitored dual channel system, a single MC-S Series switch and MC-S Series control units 1 or 2 combine to fullfi l Category 3 requirements. Control Unit 6 with 2 to 6 MC-S switches fullfi ls Category 4 require - ments for the 3 N/O outputs and Category 3 for the N/O delayed G output. The MC-S Series control units provide EDM (External Device Monitoring, also called MPCE monitoring) with an automatic or manual reset. This allows the MC- S Series control units to replace a safety relay in some applications.
