statuses where large danger areas have to be secured and housings or covers are not
possible.
Typical applications are conveyor systems and rotating machines and large danger
areas.
The safety rope emergency stop switch meets the requirements of EN ISO 13850, IEC
/ EN 60947-5-1 and IEC / EN 60947-5-5.
The safety rope emergency stop switch can be used in applications up to performance
level e according to EN ISO 13849-1.
NOTE
2.2 Function and electrical connection
Make careful note of all information in the operating instructions of the safety rope
emergency stop switch. This document provides all required instructions concerning
installation, mounting, operation and maintenance.
Important note
The products described here are designed to be components of a safetyoriented machine or control system. A complete safety-related system normally
includes sensors, evaluation units, signalling components and concepts for safe
switch-off. It is the responsibility of each manufacturer of a machine or
installation to ensure a correct functioning of the whole system.
The manufacturer of the safety rope emergency stop switch, his subsidiaries
and affiliates are not in a position to ensure all of the characteristics of a
machine or product which was not designed by him.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any recommendation that may be
implied or stated here. The warranty contained in the contract of sale is the sole
warranty. Any statements contained herein do not create new warranties or
modify existing ones.
Compliance with the description of the operating instructions of the safety rope
emergency stop switch is mandatory!

4 Installation
Installation must be carried out by authorised personnel. The safety rope emergency
stop switch is mounted using four M5 screws. The tightening torque for the fixing
screws is 4 Nm The tightening torque for the cover screws, the cable glands and cable
seals is 1.5 Nm to ensure protection rating IP 67. Only use seals of the correct size for
the cable entry and the external diameter of the cable.
The maximum vertical pull force on the rope pull is 130N until activation, the max.
travel 300mm. Enough space has to be provided so that the required actuation travel
can be reached.
Eye bolts have to be installed between the switches across the whole length of the
rope at a distance of min. 2.5m to max. 3m. The first eyebolt must be mounted at a
distance of max. 500mm of the switch eye bolt or the tension spring (if it is used). It is
important to note that the first 500mm cannot be used as part of the active protected
area (E-stop triggering).
Installation of the components
The tension of the rope is obtained by rope tensioner systems. After the installation
the tension must be set to the middle position which is indicated by green arrows in
the transparent window of the individual switches. Verify the function of all switches
and the control circuits by pulling on various spots on the rope in the active protected
area and then resetting the individual switches by pressing the blue reset button.
Ensure each time that the switches clip into place and have to be reset manually by
pressing the blue button. If necessary, increase the rope tension until the tests along
the active length of the area are satisfactory.
