1. Spring-Return Safety Switch Overview
The Schmersal PS315-Z11-K360 is a heavy-duty safety limit switch engineered for high-reliability position monitoring in industrial automation. Featuring a spring-return roller lever actuator (Z11 suffix) with ±1.5mm repeat accuracy, this device ensures positive contact operation in safety-critical applications. Its zinc die-cast housing provides IP67 protection against dust, oils, and temporary immersion (1m depth/30 minutes). The "K360" designation indicates 360° rotatable mounting capability for flexible installation. Certified to ISO 13849-1 PL d (Category 3) and IEC 62061 SIL 2, it operates across 24-240V AC/DC within -25°C to +70°C environments. Force-guided silver-cadmium contacts (2NC + 2NO) handle 6A @ 250V AC loads, while the stainless steel roller lever withstands IK10 impacts (20J). Designed for press brakes, automated gates, and material handling systems, its 10-million-cycle rating ensures longevity in high-vibration industrial environments.

3. Industrial Machinery Applications
This switch excels in applications requiring positive-position detection:
- Press Brakes: Tool positioning and guard monitoring per ANSI B11.3
- Stamping Presses: Safety gate verification with anti-tie-down logic
- Material Handling: Conveyor emergency stop cord position feedback
- Robotic Workcells: Guard door interlocks for ISO 10218 compliance
- Hydraulic Power Units: Cover position monitoring

5. Safety Operation & Construction
Mechanical Operation Sequence:
- Lever Engagement:
- Roller depressed (6-9N force) → NC contacts close within 15ms
- Position Locking:
- Over-center mechanism secures contacts against vibration
- Guard Opening:
- Spring forces lever return → NC contacts positively open
- Guaranteed contact gap ≥0.5mm
- Fault Protection:
- Welded contacts mechanically separated by cam mechanism
- Auxiliary NO contact provides position feedback
