Q1: What does "11Y-T" mean in SCHMERSAL ML 441-11Y-T-M20?
A: "11" = 1NO+1NC contacts, "Y" = roller lever actuator type, "T" = standard terminal arrangement; distinguishes it from "Z" (roller plunger) or "U" (rod lever) variants.
Q2: Is ML 441-11Y-T-M20 suitable as a safety interlock switch?
A: Yes — NC contact has positive-opening mechanism per IEC 60947-5-1 Annex K; must be wired into certified safety relay or PLC safety module for SIL/PL compliance.
Q3: Can I replace the M20 entry with M25 cable gland?
A: No — housing is pre-tapped M20 only; use an approved M20-to-M25 adapter if larger conduit is required, maintaining IP67 sealing integrity.
Q4: What is the difference between ML 441 and SCHMERSAL T-series switches?
A: ML 441 uses die-cast metal housing for heavy-duty/high-vibration environments; T-series has thermoplastic body for lighter general-purpose positioning tasks.
