1. To ensure personal safety and prevent safety accidents, please install multiple safety devices at the same time when using safety switches, otherwise it may cause personal injury or safety accidents.
2. Please appoint an equipment administrator to operate the safety switches, and the administrator requirements are as follows.
Operators who are familiar with the installation, setup, use, and maintenance of safety switches.
Operators who are well trained in and comply with national or regional regulations/systems/laws applicable to the safety switches. If the equipment is operated by a person who is not trained in the use of safety switch, there is a risk of personal injury or a safety hazard.
3.After installing the interlock switch, please make sure that the safety interlock switches is functioning as intended before putting it into operation. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or a safety hazard.
4.It is prohibited to use the safety switches in places where explosive, flammable, or corrosive gases are present, or in places where the temperature changes drastically, places with high humidity where condensation may occur, and places with strong vibrations, or in places where solvents such as diluents and detergents are present, as there is a risk of explosion or fire, and there is a risk of degradation of the industrial safety switches's performance.
5.Safety interlock switches configured with a variety of contact configurations, please confirm when ordering, and select the appropriate model according to the requirements, do not arbitrarily modify the safety door switch, otherwise it may reduce the performance of the equipment safety switches and damage the switch.
6.Do not use the safety door switches as a door stop element. Always set a mechanical stop element to limit the door position.
7.Do not use the safety door switches as a door lock device. Please add a mechanical door bolt or other methods to set the door lock. Otherwise, the safety door switch operation key may be offset due to vibration or the door itself, and cannot be accurately inserted into the switch actuator, and may even damage the switch.
