Safety relay/expansion relay to Pluto
The BT50 is designed to connect safety devices, such as
emergency stops, directly in the voltage supply circuit to
the relay. Despite a maximum built-in width of 22.5 mm the
relay is very powerful.
With 3NO safety outputs, 1NC output (for monitoring
purposes), a test input and complete internal supervision,
the BT50 is quite unique. In addition, delayed outputs
(BT50T) can be ordered.
In order for the safety outputs to close, the supply voltage, e.g. by means of an emergency stop button, must be
connected to A1 and A2 and the test input closed. After
actuation of the relay the test input can be opened again.
The test input is intended to supervise that contactors
or valves have dropped/returned before a new start can
be permitted.The test input can also be used for starting
and the start button can be supervised (see the connection example on the next page).
More outputs
By connecting a BT50 to a safety relay/PLC it is easy to
increase the number of safe outputs. This means that an
unlimited number of dangerous machine operations and
functions can be stopped by using just one safety-PLC.
Safety level
BT50 have an internal redundant and monitored safety
function. Power failure, internal component faults or external interference cannot result in dangerous functions.

screened cable can be used and/or connection made to
both A1 and A2 (see the example on the next page).
Regulations and standards
The BT50 is designed and approved in accordance with
appropriate directives and standards. See technical data.

Technical description – BT50(T)
Supervision circuit
When supply voltage is connected to A1
and A2, relays K1 and K2 are activated. K1
and K2 drop if the supply voltage is disconnected. Both relays K1 and K2 must drop for
them to be activated again. Another requirement is that the test circuit, A1 - X4, must
be closed for the outputs to be activated.
Thereafter A1 - X4 can either be open or
constantly closed.
The supervising circuit ensures that both
K1 and K2 have dropped before they can
be reactivated. The stop function complies
with the requirement that a component fault

K2
or external interference cannot lead to a
dangerous function.
The safety outputs consist of contacts
from K1 and K2 connected internally in
series across terminals 13 - 14, 23 - 24,
and 33 - 34. These contacts are used to
cut the power to components which stop
or prevent hazardous movements/functions.
It is recommended that all switched loads
are adequately suppressed and/or fused in
order to provide additional protection for the
safety contacts.
The NC output 41 - 42 should only be
used for monitoring purposes e.g. indication
lamp for emergency stop pressed.
