Steute RC 20 18-8T Sensor

Steute RC 20 18-8T Sensor is a cylindrical magnetic sensor from STEUTE’s RC 20 family, designed for safety interlock and guard monitoring in industrial equipment. As part of the RC 20 line, it detects magnetic fields to generate a safety signaling input for control circuits, typically used on machine doors, guards, or access panels to ensure guarded areas are protected. The RC 20 family includes variants with normally open outputs and multiple mounting options, with configurations that commonly feature 2 m cable lengths and panel-mount installation, depending on the exact model. For example, the RC 20 1S 2m variant specifies a 41 mm switching distance, brass housing, NO output, 2 m cable, M10 housing, and IP67 protection, illustrating the practical build and ruggedness expected from RC 20 devices. Always verify the precise electrical function and mechanical interface from the specific 18-8T variant's datasheet or catalog entry, since RC 20 models vary by output type, cable length, and enclosure fit.
