CAUTION
Material damage due to incorrect set up of the limit switch!
Therefore:
• Select limit switch or other electrical component that is adequate
for the rating voltage and current of linear actuator (⮑ 3.0 Tech-
nical data, page 9).
• Consider the inertia of the movement of the linear actuator while
setting up the position of the limit switch.
• Prior to starting work, run a function test to confirm that the exter-
nal limit switch is operating properly.
DANGER
Electrical shock hazard
Incorrect installation can result in serious injuries, death or damage.
Only professional electricians should work on electrical systems.
8.4 Disengagement in
case of emergency
In hazardous situations, all movements of the actuator must
be stopped as quickly as possible and the power supply
must be turned off.
Proceed as follows in hazardous situations:
1. Immediately engage emergency shut-off, if present, or
cut off power for actuator.
2. Evacuate people from the hazard zone, initiate first aid
measures.
3. Notify responsible person on-site.
4. If rescue vehicles have been requested, keep access
paths open for rescue vehicles.
5. Based on severity of emergency, notify the authorities if
necessary.
6. Order specialized staff to repair malfunction.
WARNING
Do not restart until all persons are outside the hazard zone.
Check the actuator and application that uses the actuator prior
to restarting the operation and ensure that all safety equipment is
installed and fully functional
8.5 Action after use
Separate the actuator from the power supply.
