WARNING

Mounting Directions of the HS5L Head

  • Before changing he mounting direction of the HS5L head, turn the manual unlock to UNLOCK using the attached manual unlock key or disconnect wiring from the HS5L.
  • If the head position is changed after wiring without taking the above action, the machine may start to operate and the worker may face danger.
  • When replacing the HS5L head, make sure that no foreign object enters into the safety switch. Tighten the screws tightly, without leaving space between the head and body, otherwise the safety switch may malfunction.
  • Don’t remove the screws of head except when the mounting directions of head is changed.

Mounting the Head

Do not use the metallic or plastic head for the HS5D (without lock type). Be sure to use the head for the HS5L and mount he correct head.
Take care particularly when using with the HS5D (without lock type).
Mounting the Head

HS5L Head Removal Detection Function (Only Spring Lock Type)

When the actuator is operated, the operation of the monitor circuit (11-42) and (51-52) are the same. However, when the head is removed, disparity is detected (11-42: OFF, 51-52: ON). The disparity of the contacts detects the removal of the head.
HS5L Head Removal Detection Function

CAUTION

  • The Head Removal Detection Function cannot be used with HS5L solenoid lock type products.
  • When the head is removed from the device (e.g. when changing the mounting position of the head), the 41-42 lock monitor circuit opens (OFF position) and 51-52 monitor circuits close (ON position); so please make sure you connect the 41-42 lock monitor circuit to a safety circuit if you want to use the Head Removal Detection Function.
  • The Head Removal Detection Function can only be used with the following spring-lock circuits: A,B,C,D,F,G, J, DD, VB, VD, VJ, TB, TD and TJ type circuits (lock monitor circuit NC: 2 circuits or more, excluding XH). This function cannot be used with other spring-lock type circuits and solenoid circuits.

Installing the Rear Unlock Button
(Type HS5L-□L)

After installing the interlock switch on the panel, put the rear unlock button (supplied) on the rod on the back of the interlock switch, and fasten using the mounting screw. When installing on the aluminum frame of the thickness of 6mm or more, use the rear unlock button for frame kit (HS9Z-FL5□) sold separately.
Installing the Rear Unlock Button

CAUTION

After installing the rear unlock button, apply Loctite to the screw so that the screw does not become loose. The lod is made of stainless steel. The rear unlock button is glass-reinforced PA66 (66 nylon). The mounting screw is iron. Take the compatibility of plastic material and Loctite into consideration.

CAUTION The values shown above are based on the condition that the actuator enters and exits the actuator entry slot smoothly when the door is closed or opened. Since there may be deviation or dislocation of the hinged door, make sure of correct operation in the actual application before installation.

Adjusting the Angle Adjustable (vertical/horizontal) Actuator
(Type HS9Z-A53/A55)

  • Using the angle adjustment screw (M3 hexagon socket set screw), the actuator angle can be adjusted up to 20°(refer to dimensions).

  • The larger the actuator angle, the smaller the applicable radius of the door swing.
    After installing the actuator, open the door. Then adjust the actuator angle so that the actuator enters the entry slot of the safety switch properly.

  • After adjusting the actuator angle, apply loctite or the like on the adjustment screw to prevent loosening. (Type HS9Z-A53)
    Tightening torque of angle adjustment screw : 0.8 N•m. (Type HS9Z-A55)
    Use screw locking agent hat is compatible with the base material.
    Base : PA66 (66 nylon) of glass reinforced grade
    Angle adjustment screws : stainless steel

Actuator Mounting Reference Position

As shown below, the mounting reference position of the actuator inserted into the safety switch is: (Type HS9Z-A53)
The actuator stop film placed on the actuator touches the safety switch lightly.
(Except Type HS9Z-A53)
The actuator and actuator cover touches the actuator stop placed on the safety switch lightly.
(After mounting the actuator, remove the actuator stop from the safety switch.)
Actuator Mounting Reference Position

Actuator Mounting Tolerance
  • Mounting tolerance of the actuator is 1.0 mm in the four lateral directions.
  • Make sure the actuator can be inserted into the entry slot wi hout any issue.
  • When closing the door, the actuator is inserted and locked within a certain distance from the reference position. After the actuator has been locked, the contact operation is not affected by the actuator movement in the locked state.
    Actuator Mounting Tolerance | (Actuator deviation) + (Door movement)
    ---|---
    HS9Z-A51| ≤ 3.3mm
    HS9Z-A52 HS9Z-A51A HS9Z-A52A| ≤ 4.6mm
    HS9Z-A53| ≤ 5.6mm
    HS9Z-A55| ≤ 4.6mm

For Type HS9Z-A51A/A52A actuator

  • When there is a displacement of safety switch and actuator, the actuator may hit the entry slot of safety switch hardly, thus damaging the entry slot and actuator. The rubber cushions on the HS9Z actuator prevent the actuator from damaging the entry slot by absorbing the shock with movement flexibility. Do not, however, exert excessive shocks, otherwise the failure of safety switch may be caused.
  • The rubber cushions may deteriorate depending on the operating enviroment and conditions. Immediately replace the deformed or cracked rubber cushions with new ones.

Precautions for Operation

For Mounting

  • Do not apply an excessive shock to the safety switch when opening or closing the door. A shock to the safety switch exceeding 1,000 m/s2 may cause failure.

  • Provide a door guide, and ensure that force is applied on the safety switch only in the actuator insertion direction.

  • Do not pull the actuator while it is locked. Also, regardless of door types, do not use the safety switch as a door lock. Install a separate lock as shown in section 3.

  • Entry of foreign objects in the actuator entry slot may affect the mechanism of the switch and cause a breakdown. If the operating atmosphere is contaminated, use a protective cover to prevent the entry of foreign objects into the switch through the actuator entry slots.

  • Make sure to install the product in a place where it cannot be damaged. Make sure to conduct a proper risk assessment evaluation before using the product, and use a shield or a cover to protect the product if need be.

  • While the solenoid is energized, the switch temperature rises approximately 40°C above the ambient temperature (to approximately 95°C while the ambient temperature is 55°C). Keep hands off to prevent burns. If cables come into contact with the switch, use heat-resistant cables.

  • Solenoid has polarity. Be sure to wire correctly. Do not apply voltage that exceed the rated voltage, otherwise the solenoid will be burnt out.

  • Do not fasten and loosen the conduit at the bottom of the safety switch.

  • Use the dedicated actuators only. Other actuators will cause damage to the switch.

  • Be careful not to injure yourself with the screwdriver tip when wiring the terminals.

  • Be careful not to damage the square-shaped screwdriver port when inserting the driver into it in order to wire the terminals. Inserting the screwdriver with too much strength may damage the product.

  • Before using the following accessories, be sure to refer to the instruction manual for the respective accessory and follow the instructions in the manual to ensure correct use.
    HS9Z-DH5 / HS9Z-EH5 / HS9Z-SP51 / HS9Z-SH5 / HS9Z-BA5 / HS9Z-FL5

WARNING

  • Turn off the power to the safety switch before starting installation, removal, wiring, maintenance, and inspection on the safety switch. Failure to turn power off may cause electrical shocks or fire hazard.
  • Do not disassemble or modify the switch. Also do not attempt to disable the interlock switch function, otherwise a breakdown or an accident will result.

CAUTION

  • HS5L Series Safety Switches are Type 2 low-level coded interlocking devices (EN ISO / ISO14119). The following system installation & mounting instructions are EN ISO / ISO14119 requirements to prevent function failure from the interlock switch.
    1. Using permanent fixing methods (e.g. welding, rivets, special screws…etc) to prevent dismantling or de-positioning of the interlock device. However, permanent fixing methods are not an adequate solution if you expect the interlock device to fail during the machinery lifetime, or if you need to replace the product in quick manner. In these situations, other measures (see 2.) should be put in place to reduce the risks of function failure.
    2.  At least one of the following measures should be applied to prevent function failure.
    3. Mounting the interlock device in a place out of reach from workers
    4. Using shielding protection to prevent physical obstruction of the device
    5. Mounting the interlock device in a hidden position
    6. Integrate status monitoring & cycling testing of the device to the control system to prevent product failure.
  • Regardless of door types, do not use the safety switch as a door stop. Install a mechanical door stop to the end of the door to protect the safety switch against excessive force.
  • Mount the actuator so that it will not hit the operator when the door is open, otherwise injury may be caused.
  • Pay attention to the management of spare actuator. Safety function of door interlock switch will be lost in case the spare actuator is inserted into the interlock switch. Ensure that the actuator is firmly fastened to the door (welding, rivet, special screw) in the appropriate location, so that the actuator cannot be removed easily.
  • Do not cut or remodel the actuator, otherwise failure will occur.
  • If multiple safety components are wired in series, the Performance Level to ISO13849-1 will be reduced due to the restricted error detection under certain circumstance.
  • The insulation of the cable has to withstand environmental influences.
  • The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety component is integrated, must be validated to ISO13849-2.

For Manual Unlocking

  • To change the normal position to the manual unlocking position as shown above, turn the key fully (90 degrees) using the special key included with the switch.
  • Using the switch with the key being not fully turned(less than 90 degrees) may cause damage to the switch or errors.
  • When manually unlocked, the switch will keep the main and lock monitor circuit disconnected and the door unlocked.
    For Manual Unlocking
    (Type HS5L-□4)
    The HS5L allows manual unlocking of the actuator to precheck proper door operation before wiring or turning power on, as well as for emergency use such as a power failure.
    (Type HS5L-□7Y)
    If the actuator is not unlocked although the solenoid is deenergized, the actuator can be unlocked manually.

CAUTION

  • Before manually unlocking the safety switch, make sure the machine has come to a complete stop. Manual unlocking during operation may unlock the switch before the machine stops, and the function of safety switch with solenoid is lost.
  • While the solenoid is energized, do not unlock the actuator manually (solenoid lock type).
  • Do not apply excessive force (0.45 N•m or more) to the manual unlock key. Otherwise the manual unlock switch will be damaged. Do not attach the key to the switch intentionally ( he key is designed to fall off when the operator’s hand is off the key).
  • Do not leave the manual unlock key attached to the switch during operation. This is dangerous because the switch can always be unlocked while the machine is in operation.

For the Rear Unlock Button
(Type HS5L-□L)

  • The rear unlock button is used for an emergency escape when the orker is confined in the safety hedge (the dangerous area).
    (The rear unlock button is according to EN ISO / ISO14119, GS-ET-19)

  • The lock is released when he rear unlock button is pressed, and the door can be opened.

  • To return to locked status, pull back the button. While the rear unlock button is depressed, the main circuit remains open and the door is unlocked.

CAUTION

  • Install the HS5L to ensure that a worker can operate the rear unlock button from inside the safety hedge (the dangerous area). It is dangerous to install the HS5L in the position where the rear unlock button can be operated from outside the the safety hedge (the dangerous area), because it is possible to unlock while the machine is operating.
  • Use hand to press the button, and do not use a tool. Do not apply excessive force to he rear unlock button.

Contact Operation

Contact Configuration and Operation
Contact Configuration and Operation

  • Contact operation is based on the condition that the actuator is inserted into the center of the safety switch slot.

  • Contact operation shows the HS9Z-A51 actuator.
    (For other actuators, add 1.3 mm to contact operation.)

  • Use main circuit or monitor circuit with for the input to safety circuit.

  • Indicator turns on when solenoid is energized.

CAUTION

  1. This locking monitoring marking has been newly described in section 9.2.1 of EN ISO / ISO14119. It indicates that any devices with this marking meet the following EN ISO / ISO 14119 requirements:

    • General (- General requirements for guard locking devices) (Section 5.7.1) *
    • Locking monitoring (- Locking monitoring for guard locking devices) (Section 5.7.2.2)
      When a lock monitor circuit (contact) has the locking monitoring marking, it means that one circuit (contact) can monitor the position and the locking function of the protective door. (The locking monitoring circuit (contact) turns ON only when the protective door is closed and locked.)
      *note Both types of HS5L safety switches – spring lock type switches and solenoid lock type switches – have obtained the locking monitoring cer ification marking.
      Based on risk assessment results, solenoid lock type switches can be used only for limited applications which do not especially need to be locked for safety.
  2. Type No. in [ ] are not supplied as standard. See 1. Type for standard.

Note : To unwire the terminals, disassemble the product in the following order:
turn off the power → loosen connecter B → remove the terminal cover → remove the waterproof gasket from connecter A* → loosen connecter A

  • Please remove the water-proof gasket carefully with tools such as tweezers.
    Be careful when removing the gasket as damages may affect its waterproof properties. Also, loosening connecter A without removing the gasket first may damage the cable and provoke connection issues. Please make sure you re-insert the waterproof gasket properly into connector A when re-assembling the product.

CAUTION

  • Make sure not to lose any screw when removing the terminal cover from the switch.
  • Please make sure the cable is insterted deep enough into the terminal cover so that the waterproof gasket can tighten he cable sheath completely and ensure its waterproof functions.
  • Make sure you always tighten connecter A before connecter B, otherwise the wires which connect the terminals might get twisted or might break, and this might also damage the terminal ports.
  • When tightening the connecters, only use a tightening torque that is approved by the connecters’ manufacturer to ensure waterproof properties of the product.
  • Do not pull or twist the cable with excessive force, otherwise you might damage he wires inside of it.
