These operating instructions only apply in con-

junction with the operating instructions for the

relevant evaluation units CMS-E-.. !

Correct use

The Coded Magnetic Safety switches series CMS

are safety devices for monitoring movable safety

guards.
In combination with a safety guard, this safety com-

ponent prevents dangerous machine movements

from being performed for as long as the safety

guard is opened. A stop command is triggered if

the safety guard is opened during the dangerous

machine function.
Before safety switches are used, a risk assess-

ment must be performed on the machine, e. g., in

accordance with:

f

EN ISO 13849-1, Safety of machinery. Safety re-

lated parts of control systems. General principles

for design

f

EN ISO 12100, Safety of machinery – General

principles for design – Risk assessment and risk

reduction

f

EN 62061, Safety of machinery – Functional safety

of safety-related electrical, electronic and program-

mable electronic control systems.

Correct use includes observing the relevant require-

ments for installation and operation, e.g.:

f

EN 1088, Safety of machinery. Interlocking

devices associated with guards. Principles for

design and selection

f

EN 60204-1, Safety of machinery. Electrical equip-

ment of machines. General requirements

The read heads and actuators must be used only

with the designated evaluation units from EUCHNER.

On the use of different evaluation units, EUCHNER

provides no warranty for safe function.

Important! The user is responsible for the integra-

tion of the device into a safe overall system. For

this purpose, the overall system must be validated,

e.g. in accordance with EN ISO 13849-2. Correct

use requires observing the permissible operating

parameters (see Technical data). If a product data

sheet is included with the product, the information

on the data sheet applies in case of discrepancies

with the operating instructions. Only components

may be used that are permissible in accordance

with the following combination options table. Refer

to the operating instructions of the corresponding

component for further information.

Exclusion of liability and warranty

In case of failure to comply with the conditions for

correct use stated above, or if the safety instruc-

tions are not followed, or if any servicing is not

performed as required, liability will be excluded and

the warranty void.

General safety instructions

Safety switches fulfill personal protection functions.

Incorrect installation or tampering can lead to

severe injuries to personnel.
Check the safe function of the safety guard par-

ticularly

f

after any setup work

f

each time after replacement of a CMS component

f

after an extended period without use

f

after every fault

Independent of these checks, the safe function

of the safety guard should be checked at suitable

intervals as part of the maintenance schedule.
Warning! Danger of fatal injury in the event of

incorrect connection or incorrect use.
Safety switches must not be bypassed (bridging

of contacts), turned away, removed or otherwise

rendered ineffective. On this topic pay attention in

particular to the measures for reducing the possi-

bility of bypassing from EN 1088:1995+A2:2008,

Section 5.7.
The device is only allowed to be installed and placed

in operation by authorized personnel

f

who are familiar with the correct handling of safety

components

f

who are familiar with the applicable EMC regula-

tions

f

who are familiar with the applicable regulations on

health and safety and accident prevention

f

who have read and understood the operating

instructions.

Function

The safety switch CMS consists of an evalua-

tion unit, read head and actuator and is only

functional in specific combinations (see com-

bination options)!
The read head connected to the evaluation unit con-

tains reed contacts that are activated by the coded

magnetic actuators. The evaluation unit converts this

information and transfers the safety guard state to

the control system via a safety contact.

Mounting

Caution! Risk of damage to equipment as a result

of incorrect installation.
Read heads or actuators must not be used as a

mechanical end stop. Fit an additional end stop for

the movable part of the safety guard.
Caution! Read heads or actuators must not be

used in an environment with strong magnetic fields.
Important! Read heads and actuators must be

positively mounted on the safety guard, e.g. by us-

ing the safety screws supplied. Tighten the screws

with a torque of max. 0.5 Nm.

The read head and actuator may be installed in any

position. The alignment of the read head and the

actuator must be kept in mind (see Figure 1).
Install read head and actuator so that:

f

they are accessible for inspection work and the

installation of spare parts

f

when the safety guard is closed, the active read

head and actuator faces are exactly aligned (see

figure 1)

f

the actuator is located in the read head's operating

distance when the safety guard is closed.

f

A guide and an additional end stop must be fitted

to the moveable part of the safety guard.

f

A latching mechanism must be provided for the

safety door in the closed position.

f

If the read head and actuator are fitted flush,

the switching distance is reduced in line with the

installation depth and the safety guard material.

f

If the read head and actuator are fitted on ferro-

magnetic material, the read distance is reduced.

f

If the approach speed between the read head

and the actuator is low and the evaluation unit

CMS-E-BR is used, the approach direction Z (see

Figure 1) should be avoided.

f

Round actuators have protection against twist-

ing. In order to ensure that the actuator cannot

be rotated when secured to the safety doors, a

∅ 2 mm hole should be drilled for the safety lug

during installation.

Electrical connection

Warning! In case of an error, loss of the safety

function through incorrect connection.
Lay the connection cables with protection to prevent

the risk of short circuits.
Caution! Risk of damage to equipment or malfunc-

tions as a result of incorrect connection.
On read heads with LEDs the current on the contact

status indication is not allowed to be greater than

15 mA.
The read heads must be connected to the evalu-

ation units in accordance with the wiring diagram

(see operating instructions for evaluation units).
