Safety Instructions

This manual contains essential information for the protection of users and others from possible injury and property damage.

When multiple auto switch actuators are used in close proximity, magnetic field interference may cause the switches to malfunction. Maintain a minimum actuator separation of 40mm.

Pay attention to the length of time that a switch is ON at an

Do not use in an area where a magnetic field is generated.

Auto switches can malfunction or magnets inside actuators can become demagnetized.

To ensure correct handling, please follow the instructions.

Please check that you fully understand the meaning of the following messages (signs) before going on to read the text, and always follow the instructions.

intermediate stroke position.

When an auto switch is placed at an intermediate position of the stroke and a load is driven at the time the piston passes, the auto switch will operate, but if the speed is too great the operating time will be shortened and the load may not operate properly. The maximum detectable piston speed is:

continually exposed to water.

Although switches satisfy IEC standard IP67 construction (JIS C 0920: watertight construction), avoid using switches in applications with continual exposure to water splash or spray. Poor insulation or swelling of the potting resin inside switches may cause malfunction.

IMPORTANT MESSAGES

Read this manual and follow its instructions.

Titles such as DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE, will be followed by important safety information which must be carefully followed.

ACHTUNG	In extreme conditions, there is a possible result of
	serious injury or loss of life.
WARNING	Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which
	could result in death or serious injury if you do not
	follow instructions.
CAUTION	Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which if
	not avoided, may result in minor injury or
	moderate injury.

Keep wiring as short as possible

Although longer wiring does not affect the function, please keep it to 100m or shorter

Do not use a load that generates surge voltage.

Although a zener diode for surge protection is connected at the output side of a solid state auto switch, damage may still occur if the surge is applied repeatedly. When a load such as a relay or solenoid which generates surge is directly driven, use a type of switch with a built-in surge absorbing element.

Cautions for use in an interlock circuit

When an auto switch is used for an interlock signal requiring high reliability, devise a double interlock system to avoid trouble by providing a mechanical protection function, or by also using another switch (sensor) together with the auto switch. Also perform periodic maintenance and confirm proper operation.

coolant, cleaning solvent, various oils or chemicals. If auto switches are used under these conditions for even a short time, they may be adversely affected by improper insulation, malfunction due to swelling of the potting resin, or hardening of the lead wires.

Do not use in an environment with temperature cycles.

Consult SMC if switches are used where there are temperature cycles other than normal air temperature changes, as there may be adverse effects inside the switches.

Do not use in an area where surges are generated.

When there are units (solenoid type lifter, high frequency induction furnace, motor, etc.) which generate a large amount of surge in the area around actuators with solid state auto switches, this may cause deterioration or damage to the switches. Avoid sources of surge generation and crossed lines.

1.1 General recommendation

These safety instructions are intended to prevent a hazardous situation and/or equipment damage.

These instructions indicate the level of potential hazard by label of "Caution", "Warning" or "Danger".

To ensure safety, be sure to observe ISO4414 (Note1), JIS B 8370 (Note2) and other safety practices.

(Note 1):ISO 4414:Pneumatic fluid power - Recommendations for the application of equipment to transmission and control systems.

(Note 2):JIS B 8370:Pneumatic system axiom.

WARNING

1.1.1.The compatibility of pneumatic equipment is the responsibility of the person who designs the pneumatic system or decides its specifications.

Since the products specified here are used in various operating conditions,their compatibility for the specific pneumatic system must be based on specifications or after analysis and/or tests to meet your specific requirements.

1.1.2.Only trained personnel should operate pneumatically operated machinery and equipment.

Compressed air can be dangerous if an operator is unfamiliar with it Assembly, handling or repair of pneumatic systems should be performed by trained and experienced operators.

1.1.3.Do not service machinery/equipment or attempt to remove component until safety is confirmed.

1)Inspection and maintenance of machinery/equipment should only be performed after confirmation of safe locked-out control positions.

2)When equipment is to be removed, confirm the safety process as mentioned above. Switch off air and electrical supplies and exhaust all residual compressed air in the system.

3)Before machinery/equipment is re-started, ensure all safety measures to prevent sudden movement of actuators etc. (Supply air into the system gradually to create backpressure, i.e. incorporate a soft-start valve).

1.1.4.Contact SMC if the product is to be used in any of the following conditions:

1)Conditions and environments beyond the given specifications, or if product is used outdoors.

Ensure sufficient clearance for maintenance activities.

When designing an application, be sure to allow sufficient clearance for maintenance and inspections.

Mount / adjustment

Do not drop or bump.

Do not drop, bump or apply excessive impacts (1000m/s2 or more for solid state switches) while handling. Although the body of the switch may not be damaged, the inside of the switch could be damaged and cause a malfunction.

Do not carry an actuator by the auto switch lead wires.

Never carry an actuator by its lead wires. This may not only cause broken lead wires, but it may cause internal elements of the switch to be damaged by the stress.

Mount switches using the proper tightening torque.

If a switch is tightened beyond the range of tightening torque, the mounting screws, mounting brackets or switch may be damaged.

On the other hand, tightening below the range of tightening torque may allow the switch to slip out of position.

Mount a switch at the center of the operating range.

Adjust the mounting position of an auto switch so that the piston stops at the center of the operating range (the range in which a switch is ON). (The mounting position shown in the catalog indicates the optimum position at stroke end.) If mounted at the end of the operating range (around the borderline of ON and OFF), operation may be unstable.

Wiring

Avoid repeatedly bending or stretching lead wires.

Broken lead wires can result from wiring patterns which repeatedly apply bending stress or stretching force to the lead wires.

Confirm proper insulation of wiring.

Be certain that there is no faulty wiring insulation (contact with other circuits, ground fault, improper insulation between terminals, etc.) Damage may occur due to excess current flow into a switch.

Do not wire with power lines or high voltage lines.

Wire separately from power lines or high voltage lines, avoiding parallel wiring or wiring in the same conduit with these lines. Control circuits containing auto switches may malfunction due to noise from these other lines.

Do not allow short circuit of loads.

All models of switches do not have built-in short circuit protection circuits. Note that if a load is short circuited, the switch will be instantly damaged because of excess current flow into the switch.

Avoid accumulation of iron waste or close contact with magnetic substances.

When a large amount of iron waste such as machining chips or spatter has accumulated, or a magnetic substance (something attracted by a magnet) is brought into close proximity with an auto switch actuator, it may cause auto switches to malfunction due to a loss of the magnetic force inside the actuator.

Maintenance

Perform the following maintenance periodically in order to prevent possible danger due to unexpected auto switch malfunction.

1)Securely tighten switch mounting screws.

If screws become loose or the mounting position is dislocated, retighten them after readjusting the mounting position.

2)Confirm that there is no damage to lead wires.

To prevent faulty insulation, replace switches or repair lead wires, etc., if damage is discovered.
