The safety switches, monitoring systems, and safety relay described in this section are designed to interlock safeguarding systems such as barrier guards, gates, covers, and shields. They can be used on exposed machinery, conveyors and handling equipment, as well as textile, packaging, and processing machines, robots and other types of machinery. They are designed to be used in various types of industrial environments.
Some of the safety switches have tamper-resistant enclosures, actuators and fasteners. They are not easily defeated because two independent components are required to actuate the switch. This minimizes accidental or deliberate operation of the switch by anything other than the correct actuator. These switches are designed for simple installation and maintenance by authorized personnel only. This increases the integrity of the system and helps provide a safer work environment for all employees.
Proper installation of these safety interlock switches is as important as the accurate design and manufacturing of the switches. It is critical that a safety interlock switch, monitoring system, or safety relay is installed as part of a suitable safety control circuit. All devices are shipped with complete installation instructions. The instructions are simple, but all installation work should be performed by qualified personnel.
The purpose of interlock switches is two-fold. First, when the interlock is open, the machine should not be able to start any hazardous motion. Second, if the interlock is opened during a machine cycle, the hazardous motion must stop quickly. The type of stop command, either emergency stop or top stop (machine stops in open or end-of-cycle position), can be critical, depending on the guard's location or the machine's ability to stop quickly.
Using the new ANSI, UL, NFPA 79, and Harmonized European standards for reference, interlocks must be designed, installed, and maintained in a control­reliable configuration. The interface between the switch and the machine control system is very important to maintain reliability. If there is a high degree of risk associated with the machine, the interlock must have control reliability which means it uses redundant contacts and cross-checking (monitoring). The safety relays and monitoring systems found on following tables can be used to accomplish this.
When deciding what type of interlock switch is required on a machine, determine where the interlock will be most effective in the control circuit of the machine. To do this, a risk assessment/hazard analysis should be done first. This assessment should include the following:

1. frequency of exposure to the hazard: seldom, occasional, or frequent
2. probability of injury: unlikely, possible, probable, or certain
3. severity of injury: minor, serious, major, or fatal

Each of these must be considered separately. Each of these categories must also be considered for all stages of machine operation including installation, normal operation, maintenance, inspection, and removal from service. Remember, when interlock­ing guards, there are many factors that must be considered, including safety, reliability, convenience, production, and maintenance.
Note: This section of the catalog uses NO for normally open contacts and NC for normally closed contacts in the specifications and descriptions. All safety contacts are specified as normally open when the actuator is not inserted in the switch.

Either tamper-resistant safety switch can be used to interlock hinged, sliding, or lift-off guards. Closure of the guard or latch causes the actuator to enter the switch and release the dual antitamper locking cams. The actuator allows the main center cam to rotate and make the switch contacts. When opening the guard or latch, the actuator positively forces the contacts open due to the cam action built into the switch.
These versatile switches have multiple actuation entry positions. Actuators and conduit adapter are sold separately.

SAFETY RELAY
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

• Interlocked Guards
• Machine Input/Output Signals

A safety relay is designed to connect safety devices, such as interlock switches, to the machine control circuit. It provides a switching action from the safety interlock switch, and can act as an intermediate relay to distribute a signal to multiple devices. The relay compares input and output signals, and provides failure to a safe condition if there is a failure in the interlocking interface control circuit.
Without a safety relay, faults and short circuits in a safety interlock switch can go undetected and can create a hazardous situation. The potential for faults exists in the power supply, relays, and switches as well as their associated wiring.
When using a safety relay, the wiring is monitored and compared. If a failure occurs in one area, it will be detected and a stop signal will be sent to the safeguarded machine.
This dual-channel safety relay has 1 NC or 2 NC dual-channel safety inputs. It is designed for use with guard interlock switches or a light curtain.
This safety relay has 3 NO safety outputs and 1 NC auxiliary output. The safety outputs have independent and redundant internal contacts to help the safety function. The auxiliary contact is a nonsafety output intended to provide an external signal about the status of the safety outputs.

CODED MAGNETIC SAFETY SWITCH AND CONTROL UNIT
TIlls high-integrity system consists of an electromagnetically coded magnetic safety switch. actuator. and control unit. The switch and actuator can be used as a stand-alone system for low-power. low-risk machines or with the control unit for applications requiring a higher level of integrity. The control unit should be used when monitoring and checking of the circuit is required. The 11S/230-V AC unit monitors and checks up to six coded magnetic safety switches (wired in series); the 24-V AC/DC unit monitors up to fifteen coded magnetic safety switches (wired in series). If a failure is detected in any switch or in the control unit at a machine off/on cycle. a stop signal will be sent to the guarded machine. The control unit also provides monitoring of the machine's control contactor.

MAGNETIC SAFETY SWITCH

These reed-type switches are magnetically actuated and offer non contact reliability along with tolerance for misalignment. They are totally submersible, which makes them ideal for environments where hygiene is important. Each switch is supplied with a prewired 13-foot cable.
On presenting the magnetic actuator to the switch, the high intensity field, from the actuator, causes the internal reed-switch safety contact(s) to close. On removing the actuator, the safety contact(s) open.

CABLE AND PUSH-BUTTON E-STOP
This switch is a cable and push-button emergency­stop device. At the same time it is used to provide an awareness barrier on exposed machinery, such as conveyors.
This device enables this system to accommodate cable spans up to 248 feet (75 m).
The switch has a unique cam operation of the contact mechanism to give rapid, positive operation of the contacts. This mechanism also provides a failure to the safe condition if the cable goes slack or is cut, but is immune to nuisance tripping due to machine vibration. Should the cable be pulled, the contacts are opened, isolating machine power, and the latch engages. The machine cannot restart until the hazard has been corrected and the switch is reset. The switch is reset by turning the blue reset dial from the off position to the run position. This switch also incorporates a cable-tension indicator. This indicator assists in installation and maintenance of the switch. A red mushroom-head emergency-stop button is provided on each switch. Optionally available is an indicator light as shown.
A cable tension kit, which includes thimbles, cable clamps and a turnbuckle, must be used with this switch (see below). This kit includes the components to properly tension the cable. When installing this switch on cable runs over 12 feet, one switch should be installed at both ends of the cable. The cables should be supported by eye bolts every 6-1/2 to 10 feet (2 to 3 m) along its length. They should also be used about one foot from each switch to ensure that all emergency-pull movement is transmitted to both units in a linear fashion. If this assembly is to go around a corner, a free-moving pulley should be used. Please consult the factory if this is required.

Safety mats are intended to be used as auxiliary or additional safeguarding equipment to protect oper­ators and other employees in the machine area. They must not be used as the primary method of safeguarding except when all other means are not applicable.
These mats can safeguard many types of machines. Consider the following when choosing mats:

1. How is the mat to be interfaced to the exist­ing motor control or equipment? Does a new control or starter need to be added?
2. Can the motion of the machine that is creat­ing the point-of-operation hazard be stopped quickly? If it can, what kind of clutch and brake arrangement does it have? Is the machine hydraulically or pneumatically oper­ated? Is it operated by any other means?

Before applying a safety mat to any machine, make sure it will be interfaced correctly with the machine control and make sure it does not inter­fere with productivity. The whole machine system must be considered, including safeguarding, machine control, disconnects, starters, covers for rotating parts, auxiliary parts, feeding and retrieving of workpieces, etc.
The pressure-sensitive, heavy-duty safety mats described on these pages are highly resistant to wear, oils, grease, acids and most common chemicals.
These mats function in two different ways. One way is that the machine will not start if someone or some object is on the mat. Another way is that if the machine is already operating or cycling, it will stop if someone steps onto the mat. In this case, the machine needs to be restarted once the mat has been cleared.
The mat(s) must be located so an operator or other employee, when stepping onto the mat, cannot reach into the point-of-operation hazard prior to the machine's hazardous motion coming to a stop. See ANSI/RIA R15.06 robot safety standard for detailed gUidelines on mat safety distance. Also see the ANSI B 11.19 for gUidelines on mat control system reliability.

The single-piece molded construction of these safety mats means these mats will not delaminate. The mats encase conductive plates which provide stop/restart signals when pressure is applied or released. Each mat top surface has a rib pattern running parallel with the mat length which helps prevent slipping. yet is easy to clean.
All mats are supplied with a 20' single-jacketed. four-wire cord exiting from the width end of the mat. The outside edge of each mat has a lip to attach either an aluminum ramp or a blunt edge. The lip can also be removed when joining two mats with a mat connector. The mat dimensions provided are for the active area of the mat.
These mats can be supplied individually or in multiple configurations. They are available in various sizes and can be tied together (electrically) in series.
The part numbers listed in the chart below do not include any ramps. blunt edges. or connectors. Follow the instructions below the chart to add ramp edging.
Note: A mat control box Part No. RKR-062. or Zone Monitor Part No. RKR-103 or RKR-107 must be used with the mats. See below.

The pressure-sensitive safety mat information in the chart is for mats without EDG-1000 Series ramp edging. To include mitered ramp edging on all four sides of the mat, add a -1 to the part number and add 4" to both the width and length provided in the chart.
All mats are furnished with a 20' four-wire cord that exits the mat at the width end.

RAMP EDGING, BLUNT EDGING, AND MAT CONNECTORS
An aluminum ramp-edged mat system can be customized to fit any shape or size area. Custom-made mats can fit most areas and even provide cutouts for machine legs, posts, or other obstructions. Send us a layout drawing with complete dimensions of the area the mats need to cover, and, we will provide a proposal for the required mats and accessories.

MAT CONTROLS
MAT CONTROL BOX-PART NO. RKR-062
This mat control box provides an interface for the safety mats to the existing machine control. If someone steps on the mat while the machine is operating or cycling, the control is designed to provide a stop signal; or, if some­one is on the matts), the stop signal will not allow the machine to start a cycle. If special applications of this control are required, please consult the factory.
This mat control is furnished in a dust- and oil-tight NEMA 12 enclosure and includes a selectable latch-out feature. When the latch-out feature is turned on, the machine will not automatically be able to restart until the latch-out has been cleared. This is accomplished with the use of the key­operated selector switch. When the latch-out feature is turned off, the machine can be restarted when the mat is cleared.
CONTROL BOX SPECIFICATIONS
Voltage: 115 V AC, 60 Hz
Output-Relay Contacts Rating: A, 115 V AC Resistive

If the MAT CONTROL BOX PART NO. RKR-062 is not required, a DIN-rail mounted control module is available. Each control module has 4 NO safety contacts and 1 NC auxiliary contact. The control module allows operation in either automatic or manual reset modes.

MAT JUNCTION BOXES
If multiple mats are grouped together to provide auxiliary or perimeter (work-envelope) safeguarding, junction boxes may be required to facilitate the installation. Use of the mat junction boxes with either the mat control box RKR-062 or a DIN-rail mount control module from above. Each mat junction box includes 20' of four-wire cord.

Part No. RKR-021
This mat junction box can provide wiring for up to 10 mats for easy tie-in to the mat control. (Cover has been removed for photo.)

ZONE MONITOR
For applications where multiple safety mats are needed, a zone monitor can be used. It acts as a control box, while eliminating the need for a junction box for multiple safety mat installations. Additionally, it has a diagnostic feature to determine which mat or mats have been tripped. The zone monitor is available in two models: one which monitors 1-4 safety mats, and another which monitors 1-8 safety mats.
If the diagnostics of an entire perimeter safeguarding system are required, a latch-out/reset zone-control unit may be required. Please consult the factory.
