Application
The C 6701 safety combination can be used in EMERGENCY STOP circuits
according to EN 418 and in safety circuits according to
EN 60 204-1 (11.98), e.g. in movable guards and safety gates.
Depending on the external circuit elements, safety category 4 according to DIN
EN 954-1 or SIL 3 according to IEC 61508 can be achieved.
Functions and connections
The C 6701 safety combination has two reliable solid-state outputs. Three LEDs
indicate the operating state and the function.
When the device is put into operation it runs through a self-test to test the
correct functioning of the internal electronics. All internal circuit components are
monitored for faults cyclically during operation.
The EMERGENCY STOP button and /or the position switches or light arrays are
connected to terminals Y11, Y12 and Y21, Y22. The ON button is connected in
series with the NC contacts of the external actuators to the supply voltage L+ (24
V DC) and to terminal Y34. The cascading input 1 is connected either via a safe
output or directly to the supply voltage L+ (24 V DC).
External actuators or loads can be switched via safe outputs 14, 24.
It must be ensured that the actuators or loads and the C 6701 electronic safety
combination have the same frame potential. Paralleling outputs 14 and 24 to
increase the load current is not permissible.
If electronic sensors (e.g. light-array monitoring) are used, in
single-channel operation, Y35 must be connected to L+ (24VDC).
For autostart operation, Y32 must be connected directly to L+ (24VDC) and Y34
must be connected to it via NC contacts of the external actuators.
Use a power pack to IEC 60536 safety class III (SELV or
PELV) for power supply!
