5. Installation of the external-mounting li
mit switches RK 1/K/…/Variant ./Ex-..
The mounting of the
RK 1/K/…/Variant ./Ex-.. limit switches has to be effected via a
through hole situated in the middle of the body of the switch.
Through this hole, the limit switch has to be mounted on a
horizontal metallic shaft
of
the customer’s device which permits a rotation of max. +/- 180°. The rotation of the
shaft causes the switching. In order to prevent an incorrect functioning of the limit
switch and a cable break, a sufficient cable length must be left.
After the limit switch has been set on the shaft, it has to be fixed by the screw placed
inside the body of the switch.
The external-
mounting limit switches RK 1/K/…/Variant ./Ex-.. are not suitable to
be used on rotating shafts.
When mounting the external-mounting limit switch, take care to ensure that the
switch and in particular the cable are not damaged by sharp edges and objects.
The horizontal metallic shaft has to be connected to the potential
equalisation system.
