Specifications of SI-HG63-TK1

• Accessory Type: Replacement Accessory Kit
• For Use With: Safety Interlock Switches, SI-HG63 Series

Do not use the switch as an end stop.
The operating angle of the switch must be limited
by outer end stops.
It must not be possible for personnel to reach
any hazard point through an opened guard (or
any opening) before hazardous machine motion
has completely stopped. Please reference
OSHA CFR 1910.217 and ANSI B11 standards
(see page 2) for information on determining
safety distances and safe opening sizes for your
guarding devices.

Setting the Switch Point
1. Verify that the hinge switches (and blind hinges, if used) are properly mounted and that
2. Place the guard in its closed and latched position. Double-check that the installation is
3. To fix the switching point, move the door or hatch to its closed position and fasten it (e.g.,
4. Tighten the set screw with the supplied special bit; max. torque is 2 Nm.

6. Insert the supplied plugs into the topside of the hinge, and the bottom of the switch, to
7. Test the function of the switch to verify the proper (expected) operation.

All mounting hardware is supplied by the user. Fasteners must be of sufficient strength to
guard against breakage. Use of permanent fasteners or locking hardware is recommended to
prevent loosening or displacement of the actuator and the switch body. The mounting holes in
the switch body and the actuator accept M6 screws (see dimension drawings, pages 6 and 7).
Ensure that excessive force is not exerted by the weight and swing of the guard, gate, or
door. (See specifications on page 6.)
Position blank hinges (if used) and the hinge switch(es) on the guard or gate while it is in its
fully closed and latched position. Verify that the axis of rotation is identical for all hinges used.
(Typically, this can be accomplished by using a straight edge along the long flat edge to verify
that the switch bodies are parallel.) After the mounting hardware is secure, check the rotation
of the guard or gate for misalignment and binding.
NOTE: A safety switch must be installed in a manner that discourages tampering or defeat.

noticed, repeat the mechanical installation procedures above. See Figure 1.
