Operating Instructions Transponder-Coded Safety Switch CTS-C2-BP/BR-FLX 2. Correct use Safety switches series CTS-C2-BP/BR-FLX are interlocking devices with guard locking solenoid (type 4) for process protection without safe guard lock monitoring. The device complies with the requirements according to EN 60947-5-3. The device can be configured with the aid of a function actuator. Depending on the function actuator taught-in, guard lock monitoring for process protection is permanently active or available as an additional option and the evaluation of the actuator code has a high or low coding level.

Operating Instructions Transponder-Coded Safety Switch CTS-C2-BP/BR-FLX 7. Manual release Some situations require guard locking to be released manually (e.g. malfunctions or an emergency). A function test must be performed after release. Further information on this topic can be found in the standard EN ISO 14119:2024, section 7.2.3. The device can feature the following release functions: 7.1.
Operating Instructions Transponder-Coded Safety Switch CTS-C2-BP/BR-FLX 7.2. Escape release The escape release can be retrofitted. Escape release The escape release permits opening of a locked guard from the danger area without tools (see chapter 16.3. Dimension drawing for safety switch CTS on page 43). Important! It must be possible to actuate the escape release manually from inside Ì...
Operating Instructions Transponder-Coded Safety Switch CTS-C2-BP/BR-FLX 8. Mounting CAUTION Safety switches must not be bypassed (bridging of contacts), turned away, removed or otherwise rendered ineffective. Observe EN ISO 14119:2024, section 8, for information about reducing the possibilities for bypassing Ì an interlocking device. NOTICE Risk of damage to equipment and malfunctions as a result of incorrect installation.

Operating Instructions Transponder-Coded Safety Switch CTS-C2-BP/BR-FLX 9.1. Notes on Important! This device is intended to be used with a Class 2 power source in accordance with UL1310. Ì As an alternative an LV/C (Limited Voltage/Current) power source with the following properties can be used: This device shall be used with a suitable isolating source in conjunction with a fuse in accordance with UL248.
Risk of damage to equipment or malfunctions as a result of incorrect connecting cables. Use connection components and connecting cables from EUCHNER. Ì If other connection components are used, the requirements in the following table apply. EUCHNER Ì provides no warranty for safe function in case of failure to comply with these requirements.
Electronics operating voltage, 0 V DC Solenoid operating voltage, 0 V DC 1) Only for standard EUCHNER connecting cable 2) The function of the monitoring output OX is determined by the actuator taught-in. You will find more detailed information on data sheet 2153710 or at www.euchner.com.
With series connection: always connect inputs FI1A and FI1B directly to a power supply unit or to outputs FO1A and FO1B Ì of another EUCHNER BR device. Pulsed signals must not be present at inputs FI1A and FI1B.
