Product Life Expectancy
Kinder and Co. estimate the product life expectance to 10-15 years.
A shorter or longer product life maybe experienced due to environmental situations.
Kinder and Co. can’t give a written life expectance on any of it’s products due to the different situations the products are used.
Maintenance Procedure
All
switches require minimal maintenance but as in AS 4024.1:1996 & AS 1755:2000 a maintenance
procedure should be carried out.
Maintenance at 3 Month Intervals
1.
2.
3.

7.
Check that the switches are installed as per installation instructions.
Visual inspection of enclosure to ensure IP67 rating and correctly operating device. i.e. Damaged enclosure, bent pull
rod, damaged dust boot etc.
Inspect compensation springs (Overall relaxed size is 138mm +/- 10mm)
Inspect all attachments are tight, free from obstructions and not worn and replace if necessary.
Inspect pull wire supports for wear, deteration and build up of material, replace if necessary.
Inspect pull wire for wear or deteration and replace if necessary.
Check that the pull rod is tensioned to the set position as per installation instructions.

Test that the
Lanyard works as per Australian Standards AS1755-2000
Attach the SAFE-T-SCALES or other weight measurement device to the pull wire via the SAFE-T-SCALES rope or other
means (See Figure1). The test needs to be conducted along the axis of the pull wire in both directions. Pull the wire along the
axis until the switch trips then check the amount of force used to activate a trip. The reading must be less than 230N (23Kg).
This must be done at intervals at the centre of pull wire’s length, 3m-4m from the switch and 3m-4m from the compensation
spring in both directions (See Figure 1). After each trip the switch will need to be reset before the next axis trip test is to
be conducted. If the reading is higher than 230N then recheck steps 1-7, then retest the axis pull test. If the problem is still
present contact the supplier of the product for advice.
Reset the
and attach the SAFE-T-SCALES or other weight measurement device to the pull wire (See
Figure 2), 90 degrees to the pull wire axis. A length measurement needs to be taken as well. The test needs to be conducted
90 degrees to the pull wire’s axis at the same positions as test 1 and at the centre, between supports (See Figure 2). Pull the
wire to the 90 degree axis and using the SAFE-T-SCALES or some other weight measurement device, measure the amount
of force it takes to trip the switch. Once the switch trips check to see how far the pull wire needs to be pulled to activate a
trip using a tape measure or ruler. The force used to activate a trip must not exceed 70N (7Kg) and the amount of pull must
not exceed 300mm. If the readings are higher than 70N-300mm then recheck steps 1-7, retest the 90 degree axis pull test. If
the problem is still present contact the supplier of the product for advice.

9. After activation test, check that the set position of the pull rod is as per installation instructions, if not readjust turnbuckle
so the pull rod is at the set position and redo step 8-9.
10. If the switch is not working return to authorised distributor for assessment if under warranty or replace.
Every 12 Month Period
Remove cover & check for corrosion or water ingress. Replace if necessary.
Check electrical connections for security and corrosion.
Clean lid seal and replace cover & torque down lid screws as per limit switch wiring diagram.
