¬ Usable for ISO 13849-1:2006 and IEC 62061. Data is based on the B10d value given and:
- Usage rate of 1op/10 mins., 24 hrs/day, 360 days/year, representing
51840 operations per year
- Mission time/Proof test interval of 38 years
T The safety contacts are described as normally closed (N.C.) i.e., with the guard closed, actuator in place (where relevant) and the machine able to be started.

Note:  It is recommended that the LRTS (Lifeline Rope Tensioning System) should be used with the Lifeline 3 cable rope switch.
