1.6  Warning about misuse

In case of inadequate or improper use or manipulations of the 

safety switchgear, personal hazards or damage to machinery 

or plant components cannot be excluded. The relevant requi-

rements of the standard EN 1088 must be observed.

1.7  Exclusion of liability

We shall accept no liability for damages and malfunctions resulting from 

defective mounting or failure to comply with this operating instructions 

manual. The manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages resul-

ting from the use of unauthorised spare parts or accessories.

For safety reasons, invasive work on the device as well as arbitrary re-

pairs, conversions and modifications to the device are strictly forbidden; 

the manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages resulting from 

such invasive work, arbitrary repairs, conversions and/or modifications 

to the device.

Description

1637

Gold-plated contacts

Only if the information described in this operating instructions 

manual are realised correctly, the safety function and therefo-

re the compliance with the Machinery Directive is maintained.

2.2  Special versions

For special versions, which are not listed in the order code below 2.1, 

these specifications apply accordingly, provided that they correspond to 

the standard version.

2.3  Destination and use

Safety switches with separate actuators are suitable for movable safety 

guards, which need to be closed to ensure the necessary operational 

security.

The safety switches are used for applications, in which the hazardous 

situation is terminated without delay when the safety guard is opened.

Operating principle

By closing the safety guard, switch insert S1 and S3 are released and 

switch insert S2 actuated (differentiated operating principle). When the 

actuator is fully inserted, the safety guard is not subject to any ejection 

force.

When the safety guard is opened, the NC contacts are positively ope-

ned and the NO contacts are closed.

The user must evaluate and design the safety chain in 

 accordance with the relevant standards and on the required 

safety level.

3.  Mounting

3.1  General mounting instructions

The mounting holes are accessible after removal of the cover. The 

switch enclosure must not be used as an end stop. Any mounting positi-

on. The mounting position however must be chosen so that the ingress 

of dirt and soiling in the used opening is avoided.

Mounting of the actuators: 

See mounting instructions actuators.

Please observe the remarks of the standards EN ISO 12100, 

EN 953 and EN 1088.
