Precautions for Operation
● When using the SG-K21S for safety-related equipment in a
control system, refer to the safety standards and regulations in
each country and region depending on the application purpose
of the actual machines and installations to make sure of correct
operation.
Also, perform risk assessment to make sure of safety before
starting operation.
● Read the instruction sheet of the interlock switch used.
● Note the projections on the SG-K21S when using to preventinjury.
● Regardless of door types, do not use the SG-K21S as a door
lock. Install a separate lock such as a metal hook.
● When the direction to insert the SG-K21S into the interlock
switch is different from the opening/closing direction of the door,
do not open the door while the SG-K21S is inserted into the
interlock switch.
● When a worker enters the danger zone, take a measure such
as using Padlock Hasp (SG-PH2) together so that the worker is
not confined, and the machine is not started by mistake.
● Do not insert the SG-K21S
from below as shown in the
figure
on
the
