Non-contact sensor SRF with RFID technology

The smart RFID safety sensor SRF was specially developed for monitoring protective devices. With its innovative diagnostic system, it also makes safety circuits suitable for Industry 4.0. The system can read out a wide range of data, even if several of the SRF electronic sensors are connected in series.

Non-contact safety sensor SRF

The SRF is a non-contact safety sensor for monitoring movable guards such as flaps, doors and protective bonnets. This particularly small RFID sensor protects employees from injury by switching off machines and systems or not even starting them up until the guard is properly closed.

SRF is an acronym meaning "Safety RFID".

RFID safety sensor with intelligent diagnostic function

The diagnostic system of the SRF reads out a multitude of data from each individual sensor, even in series connection, and makes it available centrally and flexibly in the sense of intelligent production. The diagnostic data is read into the machine control system via IO-Link, for example, or alternatively displayed on the smartphone via NFC technology.

For each RFID sensor, 20 different pieces of diagnostic information can be retrieved and made available. The collected data enables effortless and cost-saving predictive maintenance through early fault detection and can thus avoid a potentially costly plant shutdown. This way, your machines and plants work even more efficiently!


SRF sensors in operation on site

The areas of application for RFID safety sensors are diverse. However, they all have one thing in common: they enable quick and easy fault diagnosis.

Safety technology for lifting platforms

„When a worker is standing on the working platform and notices at the top position that the platform cannot be moved, a time-consuming troubleshooting began up to now. Thanks to the SMART Safety System, the data can now be read out via NFC interface. This immediately tells you which sensor is reporting a problem, the corresponding railing can be checked without detours and quickly closed again correctly.“

With BERNSTEIN against the pandemic

„There are 16 SRF safety sensors per machine, which ensure that the production of respirators runs smoothly. The SRF monitors movable guards, such as flaps, doors or protective grids. This particularly small sensor protects employees from injury by switching off machines and systems or not even putting them into operation until the separating protective device is properly closed.“
