Installation Guidelines
• The wire rope should be easily accessible and visible along its entire length. Markers
• Mounting points, including support points, must be rigid.
• The rope should be free of friction at all supports. Pulleys are recommended.
• Use only pulleys when routing the rope around a corner, or whenever direction is
• Never run rope through conduit or other tubing.
• Never attach weights to the rope.
• Temperature affects rope tension. The rope expands (lengthens) when temperature
• Do not exceed the 6 m (20') maximum rope length. Banner offers models for greater
Installation Procedure
1. Mount the switch securely on a solid, stationary surface.
2. Fasten an eye bolt at the opposite end of the rope span, up to 6 m (20') from the
