SI-RF Non-Contact RF Safety Switch 2 Configuration Instructions 2.1 Safety Code for Operation The actuator of the SI-RF Safety Switch system has a non-modifiable safety code for distinct and error-free identification. This code must be submitted to the SI-RF Safety Switch and permanently saved in the SI-RF Safety Switch. Three different coding levels are available: •...
SI-RF Non-Contact RF Safety Switch 3 Installation Instructions 3.1 Installation Requirements The following general requirements and considerations apply to the installation of interlocked gates and guards for the purpose of safeguarding. In addition, the user must refer to the relevant regulations and comply with all necessary requirements.
SI-RF Non-Contact RF Safety Switch WARNING: • The hazard must be accessible only through the sensing field • Incorrect system installation could result in serious injury or death. • The installation of the SI-RF Safety Switch must prevent any individual from reaching around, under, over or through the defined area and into the hazard without being detected.
SI-RF Non-Contact RF Safety Switch 3.4 Sensing Distance Figure 1. Actuation directions The switching distances of the standard actuation direction 1 are listed. The distances noted are for a sensor working with the standard actuators (SI-RF-A and SI-RF-A2). Sensing Distance (Only in conjunction with actuator SI-RF-A) Minimum Typical Maximum...
Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death. • Application of power to the Banner device, the closing of the movable safety guard, or the reset of a manual restart condition MUST NOT initiate dangerous machine motion. Design the machine control circuitry so that one or more initiation devices must be engaged (in a conscious act) to start the machine - in addition to the Banner device going into Run mode.
SI-RF Safety Switch. A Banner XS26-2 Safety Controller with XS1ro or XS2ro Relay Expansion Module, Banner SC10-2roe Safety Controller, or Banner UM-FA-xA Universal Safety Module provides a series connection of redundant contacts that form protective stop circuits for use in either single-channel or dual-channel control.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death. WARNING: OSSD Interfacing To ensure proper operation, the Banner device output parameters and machine input parameters must be considered when interfacing the Banner device OSSD outputs to machine inputs. Machine control circuitry must be designed so that the maximum load resistance value is not exceeded and that the maximum specified OSSD Off-state voltage does not result in an On condition.
