Chapter 1
Safety Information
This chapter contains general safety information about the safety switch.
Further information about specific product use situations can be found in the relevant chapters.
ATTENTION: Hazard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device
If non-compliant, it is possible that the dangerous state of the machine may not be stopped or not stopped in a timely manner.
•Read this publication carefully and make sure that you understand the content fully before working with the device.
•Follow all safety notes in this publication.
The 440G electromagnetic safety switch is a transponder safety switch with a locking function, which is controlled without contact by actuators and is suitable for the following applications:
•Monitoring of movable physical guards
•Locking device for process protection
The safety switch must only be used within the limits of the prescribed and specified technical data and operating conditions.
Incorrect use, improper modification of, or tampering with the safety switch invalidates any warranty from Rockwell Automation; in addition, any responsibility and liability of Rockwell Automation for damage and secondary damage that this action causes is excluded.
The safety switch is not suitable for the ambient conditions such as, but not limited, to the following:
•Applications in which the dangerous state cannot be ended immediately (stopping time)
•Radioactivity (exception: natural radioactivity)
•Vacuumorhighpressure
•High UV load
•In the vicinity of low-frequency RFID devices
•In the vicinity of magnetic fields

Chapter 1 Safety Information
ATTENTION: Improper use of the safety switch
If a voltage drop occurs, the locking device unlocks regardless of whether the dangerous state of the machine has ended.
This safety switch has a simple electromagnetic locking device. There is no locking device monitoring.
•Do not use the safety switch as a safety locking device according to EN 14119.
•Do not use the safety switch in applications in which the dangerous state cannot be ended immediately (stopping/run-down time).
IMPORTANT Passing metal chips may impair the function of the safety switch.
Only qualified safety personnel can configure, mount, connect, commission, and service the safety switch.
For project planning, a person is considered competent when they have expertise and experience in the selection and use of protective devices on machines and is familiar with the relevant technical rules and national work safety regulations.
For the task, a person is considered qualified when they have the expertise and experience in the relevant field and is sufficiently familiar with the application of the protective device on the machine to be able to assess whether it is in an operationally safe state.
For operation and maintenance, a person is considered competent when they have the expertise and experience in the relevant field and is sufficiently familiar with the application of the protective device on the machine and the machine operator has instructed them in its operation.

Chapter 2
Product Overview
The safety switch is an interlocking device with a locking device consisting of a non-contact sensor with locking solenoid and a coded actuator. The actuator has a low coding level.
If the protective device is closed, the actuator is led to the sensor. When the actuation field is reached, the actuator code is read out and evaluated by RFID. If the code is valid, the safe output signal switching device (OSSD) switches.
If the locking solenoid is supplied with power, the locking device is active.

The safety switch is available in different models. The following is an overview of unique features of the models:
•One cable with M12 plug connector (5-pin)
•One cable with M12 plug connector (8-pin)
ATTENTION: Hazard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device.
If a voltage drop occurs, the locking device unlocks regardless of whether the dangerous state of the machine has ended.
•Do not use the safety switch in applications where the dangerous state cannot be ended immediately (stopping/run-down time).
Power to Lock Principle
•Lock locking device: voltage at locking device input
•Unlock locking function: no voltage at locking device input
If voltage is interrupted, the locking device is unlocked and the protective device can be opened immediately.
The locking device is not monitored, which means that the safety switch does not check whether the anchor plate is applied to the solenoid.

The safety switch has the following internal protective functions:
•Short-circuit protection at all outputs
•Cross-circuit monitoring at OSSDs
•Overload protection on OSSDs
•Supply voltage reverse polarity protection
The safety switch displays important status information with the status indicators.

Project Planning
ATTENTION: Failure to comply with obligations of manufacturer.
Hazard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device.
•Conduct a risk assessment before using the safety switch.
•Do not tamper with, open, or modify the components of the safety switch.
•Do not repair defective devices – they must be replaced instead.
•Make sure that switch-on commands, which bring about a dangerous state of the machine, are not enabled until the protective device is closed.
•Make sure that a stop command is triggered when the protective device is opened during the dangerous machine state.
•The safety switches must not be defeated (that is, contacts jumpered), rotated away, removed, or rendered ineffective in any other way. If necessary, put measures in place to reduce possibilities for defeat.
Operating Entity of the
Machine
ATTENTION: Failure to comply with obligations of the operating entity.
Hazard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device.
•Modifications to the machine and modifications to the mechanical mounting of the safety switch necessitate a new risk assessment. The results of this risk assessment may require the operating entity of the machine to fulfill the obligations of the manufacturer.
•Apart from during the procedures described in this document, the components of the safety switch must not be opened or modified.
•Do not perform repair work on the components. Improper repair of the safety switch can lead to a loss of the protective function.
•Verify that there is no bypassing by replacement actuators. Restrict access to actuators.

Chapter 3 Project Planning
ATTENTION: Bypassing the protective device.
Hazard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device.
Avoid incentives to manipulate the safety switch by taking at least one of the following measures:
•Cover the sensor and the actuator with additional equipment or protect them against access.
•If possible use permanent mounting methods for actuators (for example, glue, safety screws, or rivets).
•Select the mounting location so that the sensor and actuator are accessible for maintenance work and are protected against damage.
•Select a mounting location for the sensor that is as far away from the door hinge as possible.
•If necessary, fit an additional stop for the moving protective device.
When several safety switches are mounted to the machine, they must be mounted at a minimum distance to one another see Mount Multiple Safety Switches on page 19
The safety switch can be mounted in any alignment. When mounted horizontally, the anchor plate with rotating bearings increases the manipulation protection. When mounted horizontally, if the movable physical guard triggers the actuator, the magnet holds the actuator. As the anchor plate has rotating bearings, the gravitational force rotates the actuator surface away from the sensor surface and the OSSDs go into the OFF state.
The sensor can be mounted in the following ways:
•Surface mount: The sensor is mounted on the fixed part of the protective device (for example, door frame).
• Flushmount (1): The sensor is mounted in the fixed part of the protective device (for example, door frame). There must be a suitable recess in the mounting surface. The thickness of the mounting surface must be
1.5…3 mm (0.06…0.12 in.).
(1) For the recess dimensions for flush mounting, see Figure 12 on page 34
