Functionally safe motor options

Motors from SEW‑EURODRIVE are optionally available with the following functionally safe motor options:

  • Safety brake
  • Safety encoder
  • Integrated STO (decentralized inverters)

Functionally safe motor options are designed for implementing safety functions.

In the delivered motor, SEW‑EURODRIVE assumes responsibility for ensuring that functionally safe motor options, including their safety-relevant mechanical connections, meet the requirements of functional safety. Safety-relevant mechanical connections are designed with a tampering indicator and marked as follows:

  • Safety brake: locking compound
  • Safety encoder: retaining ring or adhesive label

If these markings are damaged, there is a deviation from the delivery state.
