Operating Instructions
Safety Switch NZ.VZ-...VS
Manual release with automatic
return
This permits opening of a locked guard from outside
the danger zone without tools.
Important!
It must be possible to operate the manual re-
f
lease manually from outside the protected area
without tools.
The manual release must possess a marking indi-
f
cating that it may be used only in an emergency.
The actuator must not be under tensile stress
f
during manual release.
Actuating the manual release does not affect the
switching contacts.
Mounting
NOTICE
Device damage due to improper mounting and
unsuitable ambient conditions
Safety switches and actuators must not be used
f
as an end stop.
Observe EN ISO 14119:2013, sections 5.2 and
f
5.3, for information about mounting the safety
switch and the actuator.
Observe EN ISO 14119:2013, section 7, for
f
information about reducing the possibilities for
bypassing an interlocking device.
Protect the switch head against damage, as well
f
as penetrating foreign objects such as swarf,
sand and blasting shot, etc.
The specified IP degree of protection is applica-
f
ble only if the housing screws, cable entries and
plug connectors are properly tightened. Observe
the tightening torques.

Fig. 3: Changing the actuating direction and the
locking solenoid
1. Insert the actuator into the actuating head.
2. Remove the screws from the actuating head.
3. Set the required direction.
4. Tighten the screws with a torque of 1.2 Nm.
5. Cover the unused actuating slot with the en-
closed slot cover.
VSM and VSE:
Prior to making changes to the locking solenoid
f
the actuator must be inserted.
VSH:
The manual release must not be pressed during
f
the change.
Electrical connection
WARNING
Loss of the safety function due to incorrect
connection.
Use only safe contacts
f
When choosing the insulation material and
f
wires for the connections, pay attention to the
required temperature resistance and the max.
mechanical load!
Strip the insulation from the ends of the individual
f
wires over a length of 6
contact.
Use of the safety switch as guard locking for

The following information applies to devices
with cable entry:
1. Use a suitable tool to open the desired inser-
tion opening.
2. Fit the cable gland with the appropriate degree
of protection.
3. Connect and tighten the terminals with 0.5 Nm
(for terminal assignment, see Fig. 4).
4. Check that the cable entry is sealed.
5. Close the switch cover and screw in place
(tightening torque 1.2 Nm).
Function test
WARNING
Fatal injury due to faults during the function test.
Before carrying out the function test, make sure

tion and after every fault.
Proceed as follows:
Mechanical function test
The actuator must slide easily into the actuating
head. Close the guard several times to check the
function. The function of any manual releases (except
for the auxiliary release) must also be tested.
Electrical function test
1. Switch on operating voltage.
2. Close all guards and activate guard locking.
The machine must not start automatically.
¨
It must not be possible to open the guard.
¨
3. Start the machine function.
It must not be possible to release guard locking
¨
as long as the dangerous machine function is
active.
4. Stop the machine function and release guard
locking.
The guard must remain locked until the process
¨
is no longer at risk.
It must not be possible to start the machine
¨
function as long as guard locking is released.
Repeat steps 2 - 4 for each guard.

Notes about
The following information applies to devices
with cable entry:
For use and application as per the requirements
of
60/75 °C must be used.
The following information applies to devices
with plug connector:
This device is intended to be used and applied with
a Class 2 power source in accordance with UL1310.
Connecting cables for safety switches installed at
the place of use must be separated from all moving
and permanently installed cables and un-insulated
active elements of other parts of the system that
operate at a voltage of over 150 V. A constant
clearance of 50.8 mm must be maintained. This
does not apply if the moving cables are equipped
with suitable insulation materials that possess an
identical or higher dielectric strength compared to
the other relevant parts of the system.
