• Read these operating instructions thoroughly before putting the device into operation
and keep them for future reference.
• Do not use this product other than for its specied application.
• The assembly, mounting, modication or retrotting of sensors and the commissioning
of pressure-sensitive edges may only be undertaken by persons who have completed
relevant professional training and have been authorised to carry out such work.
• Pay attention to all local relevant electrical safety regulations!
• Failure to follow these safety precautions may cause damage to sensor or objects,
serious personal injury, or death.
• It is the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer to carry out a risk assessment
and to install the system, in compliance with applicable local, national and internatio-
nal regulations, safety standards, codes and laws as well as the Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC, should this apply.
• Always consider the safety functions of your applications as a whole, never just in
relation to one individual section of the system.
• The installer is responsible for testing the system to ensure it meets all applicable
safety standards.
Prior to starting installation or mounting, take the following safety precautions:
• Ensure that the device/installations cannot be switched on!
• Ensure that the power supply is disconnected!
• Cover any neighbouring live parts or remove them!
• Before switching on the power supply, check the wiring as a precaution to prevent
any damage or malfunction affecting the equipment connected to the product.
• If you are leaving the installation site, make sure that the product is working properly
and has been installed correctly. Explain to the building owner/operator the correct
way of operating the industrial door and the product.
Sensor Safety switching
device
Pressure-sensitive edges are pressure-sensitive protection systems.
They are specied in accordance with and meet the requirements of standard
EN ISO 13856-2. Pressure-sensitive edges consist of a sensor and a safety switching
device.
This manual describes the assembly and mounting of sensors of the XL series. These
sensors are active switching proles. They are made from exible rubber and mounted
on metal mounting proles. In accordance with the standard EN ISO 13856-2, the use of
this sensor for pressure-sensitive edges requires the use of a safety switching device
(signal processing and output switching device) specied by BBC Bircher AG and
subjected to the prescribed conformity assessment procedure.
The specications of the various sensor types are listed in their data sheets. These are
to be consulted for the selection of a suitable sensor.

3.2 Delivery format and storage of contact prole components
Mounting proles
Contact prole mounted on mounting proles
XL contact proles are delivered in coils inside sturdy cardboard boxes
on pallets. If they are to be put into long-term storage, the contact
proles must remain inside the boxes and the boxes stored laid at.
Contact end pieces, connection cables and resistor plugs are packaged
separately and must remain inside their original packaging until used.
The components must be stored in a dry location. Storage temperatures
should be between 0°C and 40°C.
However, the components can be stored at temperatures from - 30 °C to
+ 60 °C for short periods of time, e.g. during transport.
3Assembly of ExpertSystem XL sensors
3.1 Sensor types, dimensions
XL sensors can be delivered in a variety of formats.
1. As fully prefabricated sensors in the required length, with or without
quick-fastening system and with cable or integrated XRF-TI radio
transmitter as option – equally suitable for both customer-specic
applications and the series production of industrial doors.
2. As a set in various standard lengths to be cut by the customer and for
self-assembly of a sensor – ideal for repairing doors quickly when
carrying out service and maintenance in the eld.
3. As individual components in larger packaging units – suitable for
self-assembly XL sensors in industrial door manufacture.
The assembly of sensors is described in Chapter 3 below;
their installation is described in Chapter 4.

3. Intermediate check / Resistance measurement
Connect the resistor plug and the cable, actuate the sensor
at several points
Sensor actuated: ≤ 500 Ω
Sensor not actuated with XL-RP8 resistor plug: resistance between 8.0 and 9.0 kΩ
The sealant should overow all the way round the sealing
edge.
Contact end pieces can only be mounted and used once. Reliable contacting and sealing are not guaranteed during disassembly
and re-assembly!
The sealant is highly adhesive; dust and dirt particles will stick
to it immediately on contact. Therefore, once you have unpacked
a contact end piece and removed the protective cover, you
should proceed with particular care and ensure that the working
environment is kept clean and tidy until it is pressed into place.
Hold the prole shank at an acute angle and check for
axial alignment when pressing the contact end piece in.
Re-attach the protective cover on the side and top of the
sealant on the fully tted contact end piece. (The protective
cover remains under the end cap to be mounted later on.)

4.2 Mounting the mounting prole
The mounting prole must be mounted on a at surface.
1. Use XL-QFIX screws to secure the
XL-QME quick-fastening clips rmly in
place, as shown in the illustration.
2. Hook the prefabricated sensors into
the mounted fastening clips.
3. Using a plastic hammer and a mode-
rate degree of force, drive the
mounting prole into the teeth in the
clips as far as it will go. To prevent
damage, place a suitable piece of
wood between the mounting prole
and the hammer; do not hammer
directly onto the face of the prole.
Never drive in the sensor with the end
cap attached! If an end cap has
already been attached along with its
fastening clip, loosen and fold it back
from the mounting prole, then
perform the mounting work specied
in points 2 and 3. Re-attach the end
plug once you have nished.

4.4 Mounting end caps
Fit the rst side of the
contact prole ush at both
ends of the mounting prole
and apply uniform pressure
to press it into the mounting
prole, working from the
ends towards the centre.
Prepare the lower end cap:
remove the drainage stud
The rubber retainers must engage fully in the mounting
prole.
Tip: Use a tool to help you to push the retainers in. Use
the curved edge to roll over the retainers, applying slight
pressure.
Push on the prole hard from the front to check
that it has been pressed in correctly. The contact
prole must not come away from the
mounting prole at any point.
Turn out the end cap at the top Pull the hole over the retainer on the
contact end piece
Tip: In case of limited accessibility, the rst side of the contact prole can be tted into the mounting prole prior to xing the mounting prole.
This can be helpful for example at folding or swing gates, when sensors are mounted near the ground.
Always work from both ends
towards the centre when
pushing in the prole.
This prevents unwanted
elongation of the rubber
proles.

4.5 Checking the sensor installation
Once mounting work has been completed, the sensor must be tested to ensure it is
functioning correctly. Measure the resistances by actuating the sensor at several
points:
Sensor actuated: ≤ 500 Ω
Sensor not actuated with XL-RP8 resistor plug: resistance between 8.0 and 9.0 kΩ
5Commissioning
Once the sensor has been installed, it must be connected to the safety switching device.
The operating instructions for the corresponding safety switching device
must be followed when making the connection as well as when carrying out
subsequent installation and commissioning work.

5.1 Note for prefabricated XL sensors with integrated XRF-TI radio transmitter
If the XRF-TI radio transmitter is integrated, the operating instructions for this are enclosed with the sensor. The end of the sensor to which the
integrated radio transmitter is connected has a corresponding marking underneath the mounting prole.
