CM Series
Safety Interlock Switches
Applications
2-Wire Single Channel Controllers
CM-S41 Control Unit
The CM-S41 is a combined Safety Switch and E-Stop control
unit. Along with the ability to monitor up to four, 2-wire CM Series
safety switches, it can also monitor the normally closed contacts
of emergency stop buttons or mechanical safety switches in dual
channel control circuits.
The CM-S41 has 2 normally open safety contact outputs and 1
normally closed auxiliary output, an external reset/proving circuit
and LED indication for “Power”, “Run” and the status of each
activated gate switch.
CM-S21 Control Unit
The CM-S21 control unit is a 24 VAC/DC system that can moni-
tor up to 2 CM Series safety switches.
The CM-S21 has 2 normally open safety contact outputs and 1
normally closed auxiliary output, an external reset/proving circuit
and LED indication for “Power”, “Run” and the status of each
activated gate switch.
CM-SE Extender Module
The CM-SE expansion module is a 24 VAC/DC unit that can be
added to either the CM-S41 or CM-S21 to monitor an additional
5 CM Series safety switches. Connection to the main control
unit is by a simple 2-wire bus connection. The status of each
guard switch is shown by the YELLOW LED’s. Additional CMS-E
modules can be added to monitor larger systems.

Safety Interlock Switches
Applications (continued)
Dual Channel Controllers
CM-S4 Control Unit
The CM-S4 controller is capable of monitoring up to four,
magnetically coded switches with 1 N/O + 1 N/C contacts up to
category 3 according to EN954-1. The CM-S4 has a dedicated
dual channel input for each switch and has LED status indicators
for each channel. The CM-S4 has 1 N/O safety contact and 1 N/O
Aux contact. External Device Monitoring (EDM) is available using
Y1,Y2 inputs.
CM-S30 Control Unit
The CM-S30 controller is capable of monitoring one magneti-
cally coded switch with 1 N/O + 1 N/C contacts up to category
4, or two switches to category 3 according to ISO 13489-1. The
CM-S30 control unit is capable of monitoring up to 30 convention-
al read style switches in series, but does not conform to category
4 when used with more than two switches. The CM-S30 controller
has 2 N/O safety contacts and 1 N/C Auxiliary contact. External
Device Monitoring (EDM) is available using Y1,Y2 inputs.
