Inductive loads

Inductive loads are, for example, relays, contactors, valves.

  • Inductive loads always must be connected between sourcing and sinking outputs.
  • The energy stored in the load inductance, which depends on the inductance value and the current, may not exceed the values specified in chapter Technical data.

NOTICE

Operation of inductive loads without freewheeling diode can damage the MOVISAFE® CS..A safety option.
Damage to the MOVISAFE® CS..A safety option
  • Inductive loads must always be connected via a freewheeling diode. The safe digital outputs of the MOVISAFE® CS..A safety option do not have a freewheeling diode.
  • Varistors and other protection elements are not permitted.
