    These switches actuate when a magnet comes within sensing distance, and reset when the magnet moves away. They’re often used to detect when a door or window opens. Mount the switch in a stationary position, such as a door frame, and mount the magnet to a movable object, such as the door. They do not include a safety relay and cannot be used with safety-guard doors found on machinery.
    M12 Connection—Switches with a M12 or M8 plug connect to cords with a socket (sold separately), allowing you to quickly connect and disconnect the switch.
    LED Status Indicator—Switches with an LED status indicator let you visually confirm that it’s connected and whether it’s actuated.
    IP69 Enclosure Rating—IP69 rated switches resist high temperature washdowns and dust.
