Design and operating principle > Safety switches with a separate actuator are suitable for sliding,hinged and particularly removable safety guards,which need to beclosed to ensure the necessary operational safety.They are also suita-ble for mounting on profile sections and retrofitting on existing
equipment.In combination with an appropriate safety control modu-
le,all safety switches shown in this chapter achieve Control Category
3 or 4 to EN 954-1. On the safety switches with a separate actuator,the switching ele-mentis notphysically connected to the actuator,butfunctionally broughttogether or separated by switching.When the guard device isopened,the actuator is separated from the base unit.In this process,NC
contacts are positively opened and NO contacts closed.A wide range of
coded actuators is available,also suitable for small radii.The protection class of all the safety switches is IP 65/67.The safetyswitches can be fitted in any desired mounting position.All safety switches shown in this chapter bear the CE mark accor-ding to the Machinery Directive 98/37/EC. 1111 Applicationon hinged guards
