For switching elements with four positively driven
NC contacts only the contacts 21-22 and 41-42
are actuated on activating and deactivating the
guard locking. In applications with potentially
hazardous states (e.g. overtravelling movements),
contact 21-22 and/or 41-42 must always be
integrated into the safety circuit.
Functional check
Warning! Danger of fatal injury as a result of faults
in installation and functional check.
Before carrying out the functional check, make
sure that there are no persons in the danger
area. Observe the valid accident prevention
regulations.
After installation and any fault, the safety function
must be fully checked. Proceed as follows:
Mechanical function test
The actuator must slide easily into the actuating
head. Close the safety guard several times to check
the function.
Electrical function test
1. Switch on operating voltage.
2. Close all safety guards.
Guard locking by solenoid force:
guard locking.
The machine must not start automatically.
It must not be possible to open the safety guard.
3. Enable operation in the control system.
It must not be possible to deactivate the guard
locking as long as operation is enabled.
4. Disable operation in the control system and
deactivate guard locking.
The safety guard must remain locked until there is
no longer any risk of injury.
It must not be possible to start the machine as long
as the guard locking is deactivated.
Repeat steps 2 - 4 for each safety guard.
