5.1 Access monitoring
This switch alone is not sufficient to protect any operators or maintenance engineers 
in the event that they are able to physically enter the danger area with their whole 
body, since any unintentional closing of a guard behind them could allow the machine 
to be restarted. If this device is solely responsible for authorising machine re-start, 
additional protection systems must be provided (lock out/tag out) to mitigate risk; using 
for example the padlockable lock device to block the actuator input (item VF KB1), 
designed specifically for prevention of any unexpected unintentional machine start-up 
with the operator still inside it. 
Please contact technical assistance for more information (see SUPPORT paragraph).

5.2 Using the release with lock

Items FD ••99 and FP ••99 are equipped with a release with lock, to allow the guard to 

be opened only by authorized personnel in possession of the appropriate key.

This mechanical device acts directly on the lock mecha-

nism, and releases the actuator regardless of device 
state.
This release device may only be operated by a machine 
maintenance engineer who has received adequate train-
ing on the dangers deriving from its use.

how to use the auxiliary key release:
1) Open the protection cap.
2) Insert the key supplied with the switch and turn clock-
wise by 180°.
3) Do not force the key beyond 180°.
4) Extract the actuator from the device.
5) Do not turn the key with the actuator extracted.
6) Each time after the key is extracted, close the rubber 
cap.

 Attention:- The release key must only be available to the machine maintenance 

engineer and kept in a secluded place.
- The release key must not be available to the machine operator.
- Never leave the release key inserted in the device during normal machine operation.

5.3 Using the release with manual mechanical delay
Items 

FD  ••R2  and  FP  ••R2

 are equipped with a release with manual mechanical 

delay, for use where the hazardous condition persists for a limited period, even after 
the machine stop command has been actuated.

This mechanical device acts directly on the lock mecha-
nism, and releases the actuator regardless of device 
state.

how to use the auxiliary release with manual mechanical 
delay:
1) To release the actuator, rotate the knob clockwise as far 
as it will go up to the stop; only then extract the actuator.
2) To lock the actuator, insert it in the device; only then, 
rotate the knob anticlockwise as far as it will go up to the 
stop.
3) Never force the knob, by turning it anticlockwise with 
the actuator extracted.

all applicable standards and EMC directive requirements.

- The fitting surface of the device must always be smooth and clean.
- The documents necessary for a correct installation and maintenance are always 

available in the following languages: English, French, German and Italian.

- Should the installer be unable to fully understand the documents, the product must 

not be installed and the necessary assistance may be requested (see paragraph 
SUPPORT).

- When the device is installed on a mobile frame and the actuator is installed on a 

mobile door, ensure that the device cannot be damaged by simultaneous opening 
of the frame and the door.

- Always attach the following instructions to the manual of the machine in which the 

device is installed.

- These operating instructions must be kept available for consultation at any time and 

for the whole period of use of the device.

6.2 Do not use in the following environments

 Attention: Do not use in environments where dust and dirt may in any way 

penetrate the head and deposit there. Do not use in particular where metal dust, 
concrete or chemicals are spread.
- In environments where continual changes in temperature cause the formation of 

condensation inside the device.

- In environments where the application causes collisions, impacts or strong vibrations 

to the device.

- In environments with the presence of explosive or flammable dusts or gases. 

This limitation does not apply to devices declared compliant with ATEX Directive 
2014/34/EU.

- In environments where ice can form on the device.
- In environments containing strongly aggressive chemicals, where the products used 

coming into contact with the device may impair its physical or functional integrity.

6.3 Mechanical stop

 Attention: The door must always be provided with an independent end-limit 

mechanical stop at limit of travel.
Do not use the device as mechanical stop for the door.

6.4 Maintenance and functional tests

 Attention: Do not disassemble or try to repair the device.  In case of any 

malfunction or failure, replace the entire device.

 Attention: In case of damages or wear it is necessary to change the whole 

device including its actuator. Correct operation cannot be guaranteed when the device 
is deformed or damaged.
- The installer is responsible for establishing the sequence of functional tests to which 

the device is to be subjected before the machine is started up and during mainte-
nance intervals. 

- The sequence of the functional tests can vary depending on the machine complexity 

and circuit diagram, therefore the functional test sequence detailed below is to be 
considered as minimal and not exhaustive.

- Perform the following sequence of checks before the machine is commissioned and 

at least once a year (or after a prolonged shutdown):

1) For FD ••93, FP ••93, FL ••93, FC ••93 articles: 

- Open the guard while the machine is moving. The machine must stop immediately. 
The stopping time of the machine must be always shorter than the time required by 
the operator for opening the guard and reaching the dangerous parts.

For articles FD ••99, FP ••99:

- Lock the guard and start the machine. It must be impossible to open the guard.
- Release the guard with the appropriate key. The machine must stop immediately. 
The stopping time of the machine must be always shorter than the time required by 
the operator for opening the guard and reaching the dangerous parts.

For articles FD ••R2, FP ••R2:

- Lock the guard and start the machine. It must be impossible to open the guard.
- Start rotating the release knob clockwise. From the initial rotations, the machine 
must begin stopping. The machine must stop completely before the door is released 
by rotating the knob clockwise. The stopping time of the machine must be always 
shorter than the time required by the operator for opening the guard and reaching 
the dangerous parts.

2) Try to start the machine while the guard is open. The machine must not start.
3) Check correct actuator to device alignment. If the actuator inlet is worn, replace the 

entire device and actuator assembly.

4) All external parts must be undamaged.
5) If the device is damaged, replace it completely.
6) The actuator must be securely locked to the door; make sure that none of the ma-

chine operator’s tools can be used to disconnect the actuator from the door.

7) If you have difficulty inserting the actuator in the switch, never apply oil or grease 

to the switch head; instead, check the actuator alignment as described in paragraph 
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. If it is still difficult to insert the actuator, replace 
the entire device.

8) The device has been created for applications in dangerous environments, therefore 

it has a limited service life. Although still functioning, after 20 years from the date 
of manufacture the device must be replaced completely. The date of manufacture is 
placed next to the product code (see paragraph MARKINGS).
