5、e switch housings when bothhousings are mounted on a 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) thick mild steel plate as intended in service.19.2.1.1 Level 1 and Level 2 high security switches shall have an operational gap of 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) inaddition to complying with the applicable requirements specified in Sections 49

6、 65.19.2.2 As the maximum acceptable gap of separation is based upon the parameters of field installation,the gap of separation of unmounted samples of each magnetically actuated switch construction is to bemeasured on nonmagnetic material for informational purposes. The gap of separation is the dis
