	VSX-TB RFID Safety Switch - A safety interlock device with non-contact sensing for use in machine safety applications The VSX series of switches benefit safety system designers in having: Category 4 (AS4024) Design Rating Resistance to mechanical out-of-tolerance 24VDC Solid State Operation
	VSY-ZA Safety Switch Z position head, Bucanneer - These devices are safety interlock switches featuring non-contact RFID sensing for high security. Dual-redundant evaluation and output circuits make them suitable for CAT-4/SIL-3 applications. The Z model is sensitive on the bottom side and has a larger sensing distance than either the X or Y types. This type has a four pole plug output suitable for direct connection to safety relays. The VSY switches are compatible with PA-X11, Vigilante V65, V4 and V8 models.
	VSY-XA Safety Switch X Position head, plugged - These devices are safety interlock switches featuring non-contact RFID sensing for high security. Dual-redundant evaluation and output circuits make them suitable for CAT-4/SIL-3 applications. The X variant is sensitive on the front face. This type has a four pole plug output suitable for direct connection to safety relays. The VSY switches are compatible with PA-X11, Vigilante V65, V4 and V8 models.
	VSY-YA Safety Switch Y position head, plugged - These devices are safety interlock switches featuring non-contact RFID sensing for high security. Dual-redundant evaluation and output circuits make them suitable for CAT-4/SIL-3 applications. The Y variant is sensitive on a protruding side face. This type has a four pole plug output suitable for direct connection to safety relays. The VSY switches are compatible with PA-X11, Vigilante V65, V4 and V8 models.
	VSY-ZA Safety Switch Z position head, 4m tail - These devices are safety interlock switches featuring non-contact RFID sensing for high security. Dual-redundant evaluation and output circuits make them suitable for CAT-4/SIL-3 applications. The Z model is sensitive on the bottom side and has a larger sensing distance than either the X or Y types. This type has a six core four meter cable tail suitable for direct connection to safety relays or series connection in CAT-3 applications. The VSY switches are compatible with PA-X11, Vigilante V65, V4 and V8 models.
	VSY-XA Safety Switch X Position head, 4m tail - These devices are safety interlock switches featuring non-contact RFID sensing for high security. Dual-redundant evaluation and output circuits make them suitable for CAT-4/SIL-3 applications. The X variant is sensitive on the front face. This type has a six core four meter cable tail suitable for direct connection to safety relays or series connection in CAT-3 applications. The VSY switches are compatible with PA-X11, Vigilante V65, V4 and V8 models.

VSY-HK Long Range Key with extended lateral sense - These keys are twice as wide as the long range VSY-LRK key. They provide slightly lower sensing ranges, but over a wider lateral range.	VSY Key - The key part of VSY switches provides the coded message to enable the switch. All VSY/VSX switches are keyed alike so a single key will operate any switch. Switches are normally purchased with keys, but these keys can be purchased separately as spare parts.
2m M12 Cable(p/n 1006240) - 2m Cable For VSY switches with M12 plug option	VSY-LRK Long Range Key for SQX/VSX Switch - This key is physically larger than the standard VSY key, but provides 2-3 times the sensing range for more extremely misaligned applications.
