• When mounting on a hinged gate or door, mount the switch and actuator at least

6" away from the hinges to achieve the maximum movement.

• The switch and actuator must move in one of the approved directions.

See Figure 2.

• The actuator can be mounted at a 90

°

rotation to the switch.

• Do not mount for parallel actuation. An on-off-on signal may result when the

actuator passes by the switch.

2. Mount the switch on the stationary frame of the machine and connect the electrical

wiring. When mounting the switch on an ungrounded machine, connect the ground
lead to one of the mounting screws.

3. Mount the actuator on the movable guard, door, or gate.

Parallel Actuation

The interlock switch and actuator magnet should be mounted in only three
configurations for actuation:

Perpendicular

Actuation

Door

Actuation

Pivot Actuation

Figure 2

Not Recommended

Three configurations are appropriate for interlock applications. The parallel
actuation can result in on/off/on signal if the actuator passes by the switch rather
than coming to rest in proximity to it. This is NOT a recommended configuration for
interlock applications.
