MECHAN CONTROLS Installation Guide : MS5, MS5-SS, MS7, MS7-SS Safety Switches Description: MAGNASAFE MS5 and MS7 safety switches are non-contact, magnetically operated switch and actuator. Designed to work with safety relays that have a low inrush current on the switch input, these switches provides an economical method of switching for the higher category, dual channel circuits. These safety switches are available in a robust ABS, or 316 Grade Stainless Steel housing, and both switch and actuator are fully sealed to IP67 making them suitable for use in wet or dusty environments. They are easy to install and tolerant to misalignment. With correct installation, these safety switches comply with the guidelines given in EN1088. Magnasafe Safety switches are designed to be used in part of safety related control system. A risk assessment should take place to establish that the specifications of these safety switches are suitable for the application required. See Technical Specifications below or contact Mechan Controls for further information. Keep this guide for future reference This information is designed to help suitably qualified personnel install and operate Mechan Safety equipment. Before using this product, read this guide thoroughly along with any relevant European and/or National standards e.g. Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and it’s amendments, Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations. Further information can be obtained from Mechan Controls.

MS5-SS All Dimensions in MM Operation Magnasafe safety switches can approach each other from most directions. When closed the targets printed on the front face of the switches must be aligned. Mounting Do not use safety switches as a stop. 1 mm separation when closed provides the best results. Mount the switch on to the machine frame and the actuator on to the opening edge of the door. Always try to mount the switch on non-ferrous material. (Ferrous materials may reduce the switching distance.) Minimum separation 50mm between adjacent switches. on hinged side of Hide the actuator where
