Banner SI-QM100 Locking Style Switches - Manual (Page 2)

This symbol ( ) for a positive-opening safety contact (IEC 60947-5-1) is used in the switching diagram to identify the point in actuator
travel where the normally-closed safety contact is fully open.
* A kit contains an interlock and actuator. Individual interlock bodies or actuators are for replacement purposes only.
Important Information Regarding the Use of Safety Switches
In the United States, the functions that Banner safety switches are intended to perform are regulated by the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA). Whether or not any particular safety switch installation meets all applicable OSHA requirements depends
upon factors that are beyond the control of Banner Engineering Corp. These factors include the details of how the safety switches are
applied, installed, wired, operated, and maintained.
Banner Engineering Corp. has attempted to provide complete application, installation, operation, and maintenance instructions. This in-
formation is found in the instruction manual packaged with each safety switch. In addition, we suggest that any questions regarding the
use or installation of safety switches be directed to the factory applications department at the telephone numbers or address shown
below.
Banner Engineering Corp. recommends that safety switches be applied according to the guidelines set forth in international (ISO/IEC)
standards listed below. Specifically, Banner Engineering Corp. recommends application of these safety switches in a configuration which
meets safety category 4, per ISO 13849 (EN954-1).
In addition, the user of Banner safety switches has the responsibility to ensure that all local, state, and national laws, rules, codes, and
regulations relating to the use of Banner safety switches in any particular application are satisfied. Extreme care is urged that all legal
requirements have been met and that all installations and maintenance instructions are followed.

Overview
Spring Lock, Solenoid Unlock (Models SI-QM100DMSG and SI-QM100AMSG). The actuator is mechanically locked when it is fully
inserted into the actuator head. The actuator is unlocked by applying voltage to the solenoid.
Solenoid Lock, Spring Unlock (Models SI-QM100DMMG and SI-QM100AMMG). The fully inserted actuator is locked when voltage is
applied to the solenoid. The actuator is unlocked when voltage is removed from the solenoid.
