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
Pull-wire emergency stop switches are used on machinery and plants,
where triggering the emergency stop command must be enabled at
arbitrary points on the wire run. If the tensioned pull-wire is pulled or in
case of wire breakage, the switching function of the pull-wire emergen-
cy stop switch is activated. (refer to image 1)

Design/operating principle
The pull-wire emergency stop switches of the ZQ 700 series are
brought into the operational condition by the proper pre-tensioning of a
maximum 10 m long wire. The inner switching element has 2 contacts;
in a tensioned condition, the NC contacts are closed and the NO con-
tacts are open.
After actuation of the emergency stop function, a latching mechanism
maintains the stop command until the switch is released by pushing the
blue reset button.
Prior to the reset of the emergency stop signal, the reason why the
switch has been actuated must be determined. The switch can only
be reset if the switch is correctly pre-tensioned (position indication in
central position, refer to image 1).
The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety
component is integrated, must be validated to the relevant
standards.

3. Mounting
3.1 General mounting instructions
The installation may only be carried out by authorised personnel. The
pull-wire emergency stop switch is fitted by means of four screws (dis-
tance of the drill holes 30 mm or 60 mm), so that a release by hand can
be enabled without hazard. The component must be fitted so that the
entire length of the wire can be viewed from the position of the switch.
In accordance with IEC/EN 60947-5-5, the maximum perpendicular trac-
tion force to be exercised on the wire in order to activate the emergency
pull-wire switch is 200 N, the maximum deflection is 400 mm. Sufficient
space must be provided so that the required actuating deflection can be
reached.
