SAFE-EXP block diagram
SAFE-EXP as Expansion Module - Control with safe relay contacts
Wiring as contact extension of a basic device (Category 4, up to PL e / SILCL 3, if the safety output meets PL e / SILCL 3 and short circuits in line between the safety output and A1 of the SAFE-EXP can be ruled out)
Caution:
Safety contacts will be activated immediately by switching on the basic device.
Advice:
According to EN ISO 13849-2 the wiring has to be in a short-circuit - proof control cabinet with a minimum degree of protection of IP54. For example, EN ISO 13849-2, table D4 - Cables within an electrical installation space in accordance with EN 60204-1.
A feedback loop for monitoring the SAFE-EXP is necessary to achieve SIL 3 or PL e, this can be done by wiring the feedback to the auxiliary contact 61-62.
SAFE-EXP as Expansion Module - Control with safe PLC system
Wiring as contact extension of a safe PLC (Category 4, up to PL e / SILCL 3, if the safety output meets PL e / SILCL 3 and short circuits in line between the safety output and A1 of the SAFE-EXP can be ruled out)
Caution:
Safety contacts will be activated immediately by switching on the safe output of PLC.
