Wiring the Brake Forced-release Switch

If the actuator is equipped with a brake, provide a forced-release switch to permit a reset means during startup
adjustment or in case of emergency.
The customer must provide the switch (24 VDC, with a minimum contact capacity of 0.2 A).
Connect one side of the switch to the positive side of the 24-VDC power supply, and connect the other side to the
BK terminal on the power-supply terminal block.
The brake will be released when the switch is closed.

Danger: If the actuator is oriented vertically, exercise due caution when releasing the brake to prevent the

slider/rod from dropping unexpectedly to pinch your hand or damage the robot hand or load.

Push with a flat-head
screwdriver to open the cable
inlet.
