Page 4: About This Document
Important! Make sure to use the operating instructions valid for your product version. Please contact the EUCHNER service team if you have any questions. 1.2. Target group Design engineers and installation planners for safety systems on machines, as well as setup and servicing staff possessing special expertise in handling safety components. -
Page 5: Correct Use
Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… 2. Correct use According to EN IEC 60947-5-5 and EN ISO 13850, safety rope pull switches can be used in order to activate an emergency stop function to prevent existing or impending hazard situations. The following applicable standards must be taken into account for this purpose: Ì... -
Page 6: Function
Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… 4. Function The system consists of the switch, a red pull wire, support points and a counterspring. The pull device of the rope pull switch is connected with a pull wire. The emergency stop function can be tripped by pulling this rope. -
Page 7: Detent Mechanism Switching State Display
Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… 4.4.2. Detent mechanism switching state display The integrated window displays the switching state of the detent mechanism and the contacts. Yellow in the window signals that the rope pull switch is latched (NC contacts open). If the device is ready for operation and the rope section is monitored, this is indicated by green in the window (NC contacts closed). -

Page 10: Mounting
Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… 8. Mounting Important! Mounting must be performed according to ISO 13850 NOTICE Ì Under ideal installation conditions, it is possible to achieve a maximum rope length of 75 m. Ì Depending on the actual situation, there may be increased friction in the system. This friction may be so high that automatic resetting is no longer possible as described above. -
Page 11: Selection Of System Components
This is a precondition for direction-independent activation at any point along the rope section. In order to achieve fast and simple compliance with this requirement, we recommend the use of EUCHNER tensioner springs with integrated overstretch protection (see Table 1). Additional fixing and installation materials as well as ropes are also optionally available. - Page 12 Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… Table 2: Permissible rope lengths NOTICE The temperature specifications apply to a system for applications with counterspring. The temperature specifications must be halved if there is no counterspring. Rope length L in meters [m] max.

Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… 10. Installation sequence Mounting must be performed only by authorized personnel. 1.1 A 1.2 A 1.3 A Attach bearing element with tensioner spring; fit pull wire: sheathing must be removed in the clamping range; insert rope into the fast-action clamping head as shown and secure. -
Page 14: Mechanical Function Test
Operating Instructions Rope Pull Switches RPS… Display Connect pull wire with fast-action clamping head (see Item 1). Pre-tension pull wire. Connect pull wire with turnbuckle as shown (3x rope clamp with thimble) Basic setting should take place at a temperature corresponding to the prevailing operating conditions. The length of the pull wire changes if there is a large change in the ambient temperature. -

Page 16: Connection Example
The following connection example shows a possible circuit structure with redundant design at the cable level as well. The signals of the emergency stop chain are evaluated by a safety relay (ESM from EUCHNER). The overall control concept into which the rope pull switch RPS is integrated must be evaluated by the end consumer/ machine designer in accordance with EN ISO 13849-2. -
