Installation and Operation
NSD Safety Mat System
WARNING: The entire machine safety system
must be tested at the start of every shift. Machine
testing should include: (1) proper machine
operation and stopping capability; and (2)
verifi cation of proper installation and settings of
all point of operation guards and devices before
the operation is released for production.
Mat Installation
The NSD mat system has been designed to promote
individual mat “homerun” wiring back to the mat
controller. This is suggested for easing installation
and diagnostics for maintenance troubleshooting. This
will also eliminate cumbersome “daisy chain” wiring
practices of mat systems. It also eliminates numerous
wiring connection points buried under the perimeter trim
which are time intensive to troubleshoot.
1) Sweep the fl oor area where the safety mat is to
be installed. The fl oor should be fl at and free
of foreign material.
2) Locate the safety mat in the desired location.
For future reference, install the mat with the
label side up.
3) Slide the black wire raceway component under
the mat edge (Part #M002). Refer to Figure 1
below for proper component positioning.
NOTE: The wire raceway component must be
installed whenever the surface perimeter trim
component is used.
4) Route the wire/plug assembly on the raceway
toward the mat controller location.
5) Lay the aluminum perimeter trim piece around
the mat assembly. Determine where the mat
wiring will exit the trim and notch the trim and
wire raceway for the wire to exit the assembly.
6) If surface metal raceway is used to route the
wiring (Part #M005 or M006) from the mat
assembly across the floor toward the mat
controller, it should be aligned with the notch
in the perimeter trim and anchored to the fl oor.
Route wires accordingly and snap cover plate
over the wires.
7) Slide the perimeter trim over the wire raceway
component and align over the mat edge. Drill
the perimeter trim and fl oor for securing the
perimeter trim to the fl oor with anchoring screws
and fl oor anchors.
8) If a multiple mat assembly is to be installed, use
the aluminum active coupler component (Part
#M003) to connect mats end to end or side to
side. Refer to Figure 1 below.
Controller Installation
NSD-TR-01 (Metal Box) Controller
IMPORTANT: The NSD-TR-01 Controller
provides both N.O. and N.C. output circuits, but
only Terminals 5-6 (N.O.) are safety monitored
and should be used in series with your stop
circuit. Terminals 7-8-9 are NOT monitored; this
output should only be used as an auxiliary signal
line.
