SICK RE27-SA05L Sensor
SICK RE27-SA05L non-contact safety switch, part 1059510. Coded magnetic guard monitoring for packaging and processing machines.
Overview
The SICK RE27-SA05L (part number 1059510) is a non-contact safety switch of the RE2 family. It monitors machine guard positions using magnetic coding, delivering safety-relevant switching signals without mechanical wear, suitable for guards on packaging, processing and handling machinery.
How It Works
The switch detects the position of a coded magnetic actuator on the guard. When the guard closes and the actuator is within the switching range, the safety outputs close; opening the guard opens the outputs. The coded principle increases manipulation resistance compared with simple magnetic switches.

Installation and Setup Notes
Mount the switch and actuator with the specified alignment tolerances for reliable switching across the full guard movement. Integrate the outputs into the safety circuit with the required evaluation, and function-test the guard during commissioning and periodic inspections.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does coding help?
The coded actuator pattern makes simple magnet manipulation ineffective, improving protection against tampering.
Can it be mounted behind metal?
Non-contact magnetic switches can be concealed behind non-ferrous covers per the family guidance, protecting them from damage.
What is the switching distance?
Per the family specification for this variant; ensure guard travel stays within the specified limits.
