3 DESCRIPTION
3.1 Device description
The safety device described in these operating instructions is defi ned as a
coded, type-4 interlock device with guard interlocking and without contact acc. to
EN ISO 14119.
The safety switches with electromagnet and RFID technology, for which these oper-
ating instructions apply, are safety devices for the monitoring of gates, safety doors,
enclosures and all protective devices that safeguard the parts of machines with or
without stopping time.
3.2 Intended use of the device
- The device described in these operating instructions is designed to be used on
industrial machines for condition monitoring of movable protective devices.
- The direct sale of this device to the public is prohibited. Installation and use must
be carried out by qualifi ed personnel only.
- The use of the device for purposes other than those specifi ed in these operating
instructions is prohibited.
- Any use other than as expressly specifi ed in this operating manual shall be con-
sidered unintended by the manufacturer.
- Also considered unintended use:
a) Using the device after having made structural, technical, or electrical modifi ca-
tions to it;
b) using the product in an area of application other than as described in section
TECHNICAL DATA.
4 MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Attention: Installing a protective device is not suffi cient to ensure personnel
safety or compliance with machine safety standards or directives. Before installing a
protective device, perform a specifi c risk analysis in accordance with the key health
and safety requirements in the Machinery Directive. The manufacturer guarantees
only the safe functioning of the device to which these operating instructions refer, and
not the functional safety of the entire machine or system
4.1 Actuation directions
The centring symbols on the device and actuator must be aligned with each
other.
4.2 Selection of the actuator type
Attention: The switch is available with two RFID actuator types: one with a high
coding level (part AC-L300-UCA) and one with a low coding level (part AC-L300-
SCA). In the case where an actuator with a low coding level has been chosen, ensure
that the additional specifi cations prescribed in section 7.2 of the EN ISO 14119:2013
standard are respected during installation.
Attention: If the chosen actuator has a low level of coding, any other low level
coded actuators present in the same place where the device has been installed must
be segregated and kept under strict control in order to avoid any bypassing of the
safety device. If new low level coded actuators are fi tted, the original low level coded
actuators must be disposed of or rendered inoperable.

It is advisable to use actuators with a high coding level so as to make the installa-
tion safer and more fl exible. This will render it unnecessary to screen the device, to fi t it
in non-accessible areas or to follow other prescriptions specifi ed by the EN ISO 14119
standard for actuators with low coding level.
4.3 Selection of the operating principle
Attention: The safety switch is available with two operating principles:
1. SLM24 operating principle (quiescent current principle - The locking element is
held in the protective position by spring force): actuator locked if electromagnet
is deactivated.
2. MLM24 operating principle (open circuit current principle - The locking element is
held in the protective position by electromagnetic force): actuator locked if electro-
magnet is activated.
With the SLM24 operating principle (quiescent current principle), the actuator stays
locked even if the machine is disconnected from the power supply. Therefore, if the
machine has dangerous movements with inertia, inaccessibility to dangerous parts
(actuator locked) is ensured, even in the event of a sudden power failure. On the
contrary, if the machine structure allows a person to enter the danger area with the
whole body and possibly end up being stuck inside the machine, the switch must be
provided with an escape release button, in order to allow the trapped person to get out
even in case of power failure.
With the MLM24 operating principle (open circuit current principle), the actuator stays
locked only when the machine is connected to the power supply. Therefore, before
choosing this operation principle, carefully evaluate all dangers deriving from sudden
power failure with a possibly immediate actuator release.
The choice of SLM24 or MLM24 operating principle must always be made following a
risk analysis of the specifi c application.
In case of machines without inertia, i.e. with dangerous elements being immedi-
ately blocked as soon as the safety door is opened, for which a safety device with lock
has been chosen merely to safeguard the production process, the quiescent current
principle or the open circuit current principle can both be used.
4.4 Operating mode selection for activation of safety outputs
Warning: the device is available with three different safety outputs activation
modes:
- Mode 1 (part L300-xxx-Mx1-xx): safety outputs active if actuator is inserted
and locked;
- Mode 2 (part L300-xxx-Mx2-xx): safety outputs active if actuator is inserted;
- Mode 3 (part L300-xxx-Mx3-xx): OS1 safety output active if actuator is inserted
and locked and IS1 is active, OS2 safety output active if actuator is inserted and
IS2 is active.
Mode 1 activates the OS safety outputs when the actuator is both inserted and locked,
so that the actuator cannot be extracted with the safety outputs activated. In mode 1
the device is coded, type 4 (interlock with lock) acc. to EN ISO 14119.
In mode 2, the actuator can be locked/unlocked for special applications while still kept
on the safety chain, typically for specifi c applications without stopping time, when the
risk does not continue after the opening of the protective device. In mode 2 the device
is coded, type 4 (interlock without lock) acc. to EN ISO 14119.
For specifi c applications, mode 3 provides a channel with "mode 1" functionality, and a
channel with "mode 2" functionality. This allows emulation of electromechanical inter-
lock devices with guard interlocking, without complex machine wiring modifi cations.
Using modes 2 and 3 must always follow a risk analysis on the specifi c application,
with particular focus on the function of cascaded mode 3 devices.
