General information
Generally, all the connection variants listed in this documentation are permitted for safety-relevant applications as long as the basic safety concept is met. This means you have to make sure that the DC 24 V safety inputs are operated by an external safety relay or a safety controller, in this way preventing an automatic restart.
All the safety conditions stipulated in chapters Integrated safety technology, Safety conditions, and Connection variants must be fulfilled on a primary basis for the basic selection, installation, and application of the safety components such as safety relay, emergency stop switch, and the approved connection variants.
The wiring diagrams are block diagrams whose only purpose is to show the safety subfunction(s) with the relevant components. For reasons of clarity, circuit-related measures that usually always have to be implemented are not shown in the diagram. These measures are, for example:
- Ensuring the availability of touch guards.
- Handling overvoltages and undervoltages.
- Avoiding insulation faults.
- Detecting ground faults or short circuits in externally installed lines.
- Guaranteeing the required interference immunity against electromagnetic interference.
