CAUTION
Solenoid lock type
• This safety switch is designed to lock the actuator while the solenoid is energized
and to release it when deenergized.
• When the power to the solenoid is interrupted by accident, such as disconnection,
the lock is released before a machine stops ompletely. Then, the worker may be
exposed to hazards.
• This safety switch can be used only for limited applications which do not especially
need to be locked for safety.

*1 Basic insulation of 2.5kV, 1.5kV impulse withstand voltage is ensured between
different contact circuits and between contact circuits and LED or solenoid in he
enclosure. When both SELV (safety extra low voltage) or PELV (protective extra
low voltage) circuits and other circuits (such as 230V AC circuits) are used for he
solenoid power and contact circuits at the same time, the SELV or PELV
requirements are not met any more.
*2 The actuator locking strength is rated at 500N of static load. Do not apply a load
higher than the rated value. When a higher load is expected to work on the
actuator, provide an additional system consisting of another safety switch without
lock (such as the HS6B/HS7A safety switch) or a sensor to detect door opening
and stop the machine.
*3 F1max. is maximum force. The actuator’s guard-locking force Fzh is calculated in
accodance with GS-ET-19:
*4 Make sure that a fast acting fuse for short-circuit protection trips before
overheating of the wires.

4Precautions for Operation
For Mounting
• Do not apply an excessive shock to the safety switch when opening or closing the
door.A shock to the safety switch exceeding 1,000m/s2may cause failure.
• Provide a door guide, and ensure that force is applied on the safety switch only in
the actuator insertion direction.
• Do not pull the actuator while it is locked. Also, regardless of door types, do not use
the safety switch as a door lock. Install a separate lock as shown in section 3.
• Entry of foreign objects in the actuator entry slot may affect the mechanism of the
switch and cause a breakdown. If the operating atmosphere is contaminated, use a
protective cover to prevent the entry of foreign objects into the switch through the
actuator entry slots.
• Make sure to install the product in a safe place out of reach. Make sure to conduct a
proper risk assessment evaluation before using the product, and use a shield or a
cover to protect the product if need be.
• While the solenoid is energized, the switch temperature rises approx-
imately 35°C above the ambient temperature (to approximately 85°C
while the ambient temperature is 50°C). Keep hands off to prevent
burns. If cables come into contact with the switch, use heat-resistant
cables.
The Adjustable (vertical/horizontal) Actuator
• Using the angle adjustment screw (M3 hexagon socket set screw), the actuator
angle can be adjusted up to 20°(refer to dimensions).
• The larger the actuator angle, the smaller the applicable radius of the door swing.
After installing the actuator, open the door. Then adjust the actuator angle so that he
actuator enters the entry slot of the safety switch properly.
• After adjusting the actuator angle, apply loctite or the like on the adjustment screw to
prevent loosening. Use screw locking agent that is compatible with the base
material.
Base : PA66 (66 nylon) of glass reinforced grade
Angle adjustment screws : stainless steel
Installing the Safety Switch and Actuator
• When installing the actuator, position the
actuator using the actuator stop (for
positioning the entry slot center and
mounting reference position).
• As shown on the right, the mounting
reference position of the actuator when
inserted in the safety switch is where the
actuator stop touches the actuator.
• Install a door stop as shown on the right
to protect the safety switch and actuator
against excessive force. Do not use the
safety switch as a door stop, otherewise
the safety switch will be damaged.

• To ensure correct operation, it is recommended to fasten the door using a latch to
achieve the above tolerance values.
• Make sure the actuator can be inserted into the entry slot without any issue.
• Perform operation test before starting operation in order to confirm the open/close
operation of contacts and locking/unlocking operation.
• When the actuator is pulled while locked in the safety switch, the actuator moves
within the range shown below.
HS9Z-A61/-A62/-A65/-A66 : 4.1mm maximum from the safety switch surface
HS9Z-A62S : 3.5mm maximum from the safety switch surface
The open/close status of the contacts are maintained within the range.When a gap is
caused because of actuator relocation, make sure that the gap does not lead to new
risks.

HS9Z-A61, HS9Z-A62, HS9Z-A62S ACTUATOR
• When there is a displacement of safety switch and actuator, the actuator may hit the
entry lot of safety switch hardly, thus damaging the entry slot and actuator. The
rubber cushions on the HS9Z actuator prevent the actuator from damaging the entry
slit by absorbing the shock with movement flexibility. Do not, however, exert exces-
sive shocks, otherwise the failure of safety switch may be caused.
• The rubber cushions may deteriorate depending on the operatiing environment and
conditions. Immediately replace the deformed or crasked rubber cushions with new
ones.
CAUTION
*8 When he torque is not enough to recommended screw tightening torque, make
sure that he screw do not become loose by using adhesive sealants etc. to
keep right operation and mounting positioning.
Mounting HS9Z-A62S actuator
Using two M4 screws and plate, fasten the
actuator securely on the door.
Plate has directionality. Do not lose the
plate. The actuator may fall off from the
door if there is no plate, and the actuator
does not properly.
The tensile strength of the HS9Z-A62
actuator is 100N. If an excessive tensile
force is applied, the actuator may fall off
the door. When a tensile force exceeding 100N is expected, use the HS9S-A62S
actuator with a plate.

5Contact Operation
CAUTION
• Before manually unlocking the safety switch, make sure the machine has come to
a complete stop. Manual unlocking during operation may unlock the switch before
the machine stops, and the function of safety switch with solenoid is lost.
• While the solenoid is energized, do not unlock the actuator manually (solenoid
lock type).
• Do not apply excessive force (0.45 N•m or more) to the manual unlock key.
Otherwise the manual unlock switch will be damaged.
• Do not leave the manual unlock key attached to the switch during operation. This
is dangerous because the switch can always be unlocked while the machine is in
operation. Do not attach the key to the switch intentionally (the key is designed to
fall off when the operator's hand is off he key).
• Unlocking by pushing the plate inside the safety switch must be perfomed in
emergency only. After unlocking, make sure to tighten the M4 screw to the
tightening torque of 0.3 to 0.5 N•m. Do not apply excessive force to the M4 screw.
Otherwise the safety switch is damaged. Make sure that all screws are installed,
otherwise the waterproof capability is lost.

• When the actuator is locked or unlocked, the NC lock monitor contacts and NO
unlock monitor contacts cause bouncing. When designing a control circuit, take the
bouncing into consideration (reference values: 20ms).
• Solenoid has polarity. Be sure to wire correctly and do not apply reverse voltage
otherwise the solenoid will be damaged. Do not apply voltage that exceed the rated
voltage, otherwise the solenoid will be burnt out.
• Do not fasten or loosen the conduit at the bottom of he safety switch.
• When wiring, make sure that liquid such as water and oil does not intrude from the
end of the cable.
• When bending the cable during wiring, secure the
cable radius of 30mm at the minimum. Do not
apply an excessive shock, such as tensile and
compressing force, to the connection part of the
cabel and switch.
• Use the proprietary actuators only. Other actua-
tors will cause damage to the switch.
• Ensure that the safety switch is installed on a flat
mounting surface, and provide sufficient strength
to the mounting surface so that it will not be
distorted during operation. Make sure that no
foreign objects are caught between the safety
switch and mounting surface. Uneven surface,
distorted surface, or foreign objects may result in
the malfunction of safety switch.
For Manual Unlocking
• Spring lock type : The HS6E allows manual unlocking of the actuator to precheck
proper door operation before wiring or turning power on, as well as for emergency
use such as a power failure.
• Solenoid lock type : If the actuator is not unlocked although the solenoid is deener-
gized, the actuator can be unlocked manually.
Manual Unlocking Method
• When using the manual unlock key :
To change the normal position to the manual unlocking position as shown above,
turn the key fully (90 degrees) using the propietary key supplied with the switch.
Using the switch with the key being not fully turned (less than 90 degrees) may
cause damage to the switch or errors.
Note: When manually unlocked, the switch will keep the main circuit disconnected
and the door unlocked.
• When unlocking by pushing he plate insaide the safety
switch :
Remove the screw at the side of the safety switch and
insert a small screwdriver. Push the plate inside the
safety switch toward the LED pilot light using a small
screwdriver until the actuator is unlocked. See the
figure on the right.
CAUTION
• HS6E Series Safety Switches are Type 2 low-level coded interlocking devices (EN
ISO / ISO14119). The following system installation & mounting instructions are EN
ISO / ISO14119 requirements to prevent function failure from the interlock switch.
1. Using permanent fixing methods (e.g. welding, rivets, special screws...etc) to
prevent dismantling or de-positioning of the interlock device. However, perma-
nent fixing methods are not an adequate solution if you expect the interlock
device to fail during the machinery lifetime, or if you need to replace the prod-
uct in quick manner. In these situations, other measures (see 2.) should be put
in place to reduce the risks of function failure.
2. At least one of the following measures should be applied to prevent function
failure.
(1) Mounting the interlock device in a place out of reach from workers
(2) Using shielding protection to prevent physical obstruction of the device
(3) Mounting the interlock device in a hidden position
(4) Integrate status monitoring & cycling testing of the device to the control
system to prevent product failure.
• Regardless of door types, do not use the safety switch as a door stop.
Install a mechanical door stop to the end of the door to protect the safety switch
against excessive force. When a higher load works on the lock portion of the
safety switch, the actuator may not unlock.
• Mount the actuator so that it will not hit the operator when the door is open, other-
wise injury may be caused.
• Pay attention to the management of spare actuator. Safety function of door inter-
lock switch will be lost in case the spare actuator is inserted into the interlock
switch.
• Do not cut or remodel the actuator, otherwise failure will occur.
• If multiple safety components are wired in series, the Performance Level to
EN ISO 13849-1 will be reduced due to he restricted error detection under certain
circumstance.
• The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety component is
integrated, must be validated to EN ISO 13849-2.
