Principles, Standards, and Implementation
Before installation in a safety application, perform a risk
assessment to determine whether the specifications of this
device are suitable for foreseeable operational and
environmental characteristics of the machine which is to be
controlled. Only the normally closed set of contacts are
considered safety contacts. When deploying these limit
switches in a safety system application, all applicable
standards for application should be followed. Operating
specifications must be followed. The actuator must be placed
beyond the point where Direct Opening Action occurs.
Do not use these devices to directly control a motor.

ATTENTION
To avoid electrical shock and unintended operation of
equipment, disconnect all power to the limit switch and
the controlled equipment before proceeding with any
repair or adjustment of the limit switch.
Installation of Allen-Bradley Guardmaster products
should be in accordance with local and/or national
codes. Servicing energized industrial control equipment
can be hazardous if not in accordance with
recommended safety procedures.
