HS5L Interlock Switches with Solenoid
Instructions
Installing the Head
Do not use plastic and metallic heads of HS5D interlock switches
on the HS5L. Be sure to use HS5L metallic heads.
∗ The metal heads of the HS5D and HS5L look similar. When using
these interlock switches adjacently, ensure that the heads are
not interchanged.

Rotating the Head
The head can be rotated by removing the four screws from the
corners of the head and reinstalling the head in the desired
orientation. However, when changing the mounting direction of the
head after wiring, turn the manual lock release to the “UNLOCK”
position using the enclosed manual lock release key rst. When
reinstalling the head, make sure that no foreign object enters
the interlock switch. Tighten the screws tightly, without leaving a
space between the head and body, otherwise the interlock switch
may malfunction.
(Recommended tightening torque: 0.9 to 1.1 N·m)

Head Removal Detection Function
• Solenoid locks interlock switches are not equipped with the head
removal detection function.
• The head removal detection function is available only on spring
lock interlock switches with circuits VB, VD, and DD having two
or more lock monitor circuits. Removing the head will result in
disparity (41-42: OFF, 51-52: ON). Note that this function cannot
be detected with other models.
• Only the lock monitor circuit 41-42 turns off (open) when the
head is removed, such as when the head is rotated. The other
monitor circuit 51-52 turns ON (close). Be sure to connect the
lock monitor circuit (41-42) to a safety circuit.
Spring Loaded Actuator
• When using the actuator, be careful of protruding ends.
• Regardless of door types, do not use the HS9Z-BA5 actuator as
a door lock or a door stop.
• When an operator enters the hazardous zone, take safety
measures such as using a HS9Z-PH5 padlock hasp so that the
operator is not trapped inside and the machine cannot start by
mistake.
• Use the actuator only on sliding doors. Do not use on hinged
doors.
• As shown in the gure on the right, do not insert the sliding
actuator from below. The actuator may fall out due to shocks.
• The HS9Z-BA5 actuator can only be used for HS5L interlock
switches. Do not use the HS9Z-BA5 actuator for other products.
• Do not modify or disassemble the actuator.
Installation (when installation reference is 0.8mm)
• The actuator protrudes out when the actuator is not inserted
(door is open) as shown in 1. in the drawing.
• The mounting reference position can be set to 0.8mm when the
actuator is fully inserted and the actuator protrudes up to the
0.8mm line.
