Before using the Safety Switch, a risk evaluation must be performed according to
valid standards (e.g. EN ISO 12100-1, EN ISO 13849-1, EN ISO 14121). For
mounting, operating and testing, document "Safe implementa tion and operation
of the S20" as well as all appli cable na tional and inte rnationa l standards, regulations, rules and directives must be observed (e.g. machinery directive, low-voltage
directive, work-equipment directive, safety regulations, accident-prevention regulations, EN 1088, EN ISO 13849-1, EN 60204-1, EN 954-1). Observe and print
out relevant and supplied documents and distribute to the affected personnel.
ª Before beginning work with the Safety Switch, completely read and understand
the documents applicable to the respective task.
The following standards apply for the risk evaluation at the protective de vice pr ior
to using the Safety Switch:
• EN ISO 14121, Safety of machinery, risk evaluation
• EN ISO 12100-1, Safety of machinery
• EN ISO 13849-1, Safety-related parts of control systems
Safety
The realizable category of the integration in control circuits according to
EN ISO 13849-1 and EN 954-1 is dependent on the used contact block and
wiring.
In particular, the following national and international legal regulations apply for the
start-up, technical inspections and work with Safety Switch:
• Machinery directive 2006/42/EC
• Low voltage directive 2006/95/EC
• Use of work equipment directive 89/655 EEC
• Safety regulations
• Accident-prevention regulations and safety rules
2.1Proper use
To ensure proper personnel protection, the Safety Switch must be mounted,
connected and started-up by trained personnel. It must be in perfect condition and
inspected regularly. The switching process must only be triggered by an actuator
approved for this Safety Switch that is connected to the moveable guard in a nondetachable and tamperproof manner.
The rules and regulations for protection and safety at work and the re cognised
safety-related rules and regulations must be observed. These include:
TNT 35/7-24V
• EN 1088, Interlocking devices associated with guards
• EN ISO 13849-1, Safety-related parts of control systems
S20 Safety Switches must be connected in such a way that a dangerous state can
only be activated while the protective device is closed and so that the dangerous
state stops upon opening of the protective device. It must not be used if the point
of operation can be accessed during the lag time before the dangerous state has
ended.
Connection conditions:
• the dangerous state can only be activated while the protective device is
closed
• opening the protective device while the machine is running triggers a STOP
command and ends the dangerous state
Furthermore, the S20 Safety Switch must not be used under the following conditions:
• high concentration of dust particles in the surrounding area
• rapidly changing ambient temperature (leads to condensation)
• in the event of strong physical shocks
• in explosive or easily flammable atmospheres
• the mounting locations are not sufficiently stable
• the safety of multiple persons is dependent on the function of this Safety
Switch (e.g. nuclear power plants, trains, aircraft, motor vehicles, incinerators, medical devices)
For machines with longer slowdowns, a Safety Locking Device must be used .
Handling the Safety Switch:
ª Observe the permissible environmental conditions for storage and operation
(see chapter 14 "Technical data").
ª Immediately replace damaged Safety Switch according to these instructions
(see chapter 6 "Mounting").
ª Use cable gland, insulation materials and connecting wires of the app ropriate
protection rating.
ª Protect the Safety Switch from penetrating foreign bodies (e.g. shavings, sand
and blasting agent).
ª Before performing painting work, cover the actuation slot, actuator and name
plate.
ª Immediately clean any contamination from the Safety Switch that impacts func-
tion according to these instructions.
ª Make no structural changes to the Safety Switch.
• knows the rules and regulations for occupational safety, safety at work and
safety technology and can assess the safety of the machine
• knows the instructions for the Safety Switch and the machine
• was instructed by the responsible individuals on the mounting and operation
of the machine and of the Safety Switch
2.3Responsibility for safety
Manufacturer and operator of the machine must ensure that the machine and
implemented Safety Switch function properly and that all affected persons are
adequately informed and trained.
The type and content of all imparted information must not lead to unsafe actions
by users.
Safety
The manufacturer of the machine is responsible for:
• safe machi n e cons tructi on
• safe implementation of the Safety Switch
• imparting all relevant inf ormation to the operator
• adhering to all regulations and directives for the safe starting-up of the
machine
The operator of the machine is responsible for:
• instructing the operating personnel
• maintaining the safe operation of the machine
• adhering to all regulations and directives for occupational safety and safety
at work
• regular testing by competent personnel
2.4Exemption of liability
Leuze electronic GmbH + Co. KG is not liable in the following cases:
• Safety Switch is not used as intended
• safety notices are not adhered to
• mounting and electrical connection are not properly performed
• proper function is not tested (see chapter 9 "Testing")
The Safety Switch of the S20 series is an electro-mechanical switching device in
a housing made of glass-fibre-reinforced and non-combustible plastic; the device
satisfies protection rating IP 67. The standard design facilitates easy replacement.
By means of the funnel-shaped insertion opening, the actuator self-centres, even
if the door is slightly misadjusted.

The deflection head can be turned in 90° increments and set to 5 approach directions. A selection of different actuators ensures that the Safety Switch can be
mounted in any position.

4Functions
The Safety Switch signals to the safety sw itching device whether the protective
device is closed. Moving the actuator in closes the safety contacts; moving the
actuator out forces the safety contacts to open (e.g. upon opening of the protective
device). As a result, the machine can only be switched on if the protective device
is closed.
5Applications
The Safety Switch can be used for e.g. the following protective devices:
• turning or swivelling moveable guards
• laterally moveable protective gratings or sliding gates
Serious accidents may result if the Safety Switch is not mounted properly!
The protective function of the Safety Switch is only ensured if appropriately and
professionally mounted for the respective, intended area of application.
ª Mounting may only be performed by competent personnel.
ª Observe standards, regulations and these instructions.
ª Protect the housing and deflection head from materials penetrating the enclo-
sure (environmental conditions see chapter 14 "Technical data").
• Safety Switch is mounted and connected according to these instructions
• operating personnel have been trained in the correct use
ª Test the function of the Safety Switch (see chapter 9 "Testing").
The Safety Switch is then ready for use.
9Testing
S20 Safety Switches are maintenance free. Nevertheless, they must be replaced
after maximum 1,000,000 switching cycles.
ª Always replace the entire Safety Switch including actuator.
ª For the testing intervals, observe nationally applicable regul ations.
ª Document all tests in a comprehensible manner.
