stantaneous
` 2 semiconductor outputs
` Connection options for:
– E-STOP pushbutton
– Safety gate limit switch
– Reset button
` LED indicator for:
– Switch status channel 1/2
– Supply voltage
` Semiconductor outputs signal:
– Switch status channel 1/2
– Supply voltage is present
` Plug-in connection terminals (either
cage clamp terminal or screw terminal)
` See order reference for unit types
Unit description
The safety relay meets the requirements of EN 60204-1 and IEC 602041 and may be used in applications with
` E-STOP pushbuttons
` Safety gates
Safety features
The relay conforms to the following
safety criteria:
` The circuit is redundant with built-in
self-monitoring.
` The safety function remains effecti-
ve in the case of a component failure.
` The correct opening and closing of
the safety function relays is tested
automatically in each on-off cycle.
` The tranformer is short circuit-
proof. An electronic fuse is used on
a DC supply.

Function description
` Single-channel operation: no red-
undancy in the input circuit, earth
faults in the reset and input circuit
are detected.
` Dual-channel operation without de-
tection of shorts across contacts:
redundant input circuit, detects
– earth faults in the reset and input
circuit,
– short circuits in the input circuit
and, with a monitored reset, in
the reset circuit too.

` Dual-channel operation with detec-
tion of shorts across contacts: redundant input circuit, detects
– earth faults in the reset and input
circuit,
– short circuits in the input circuit
and, with a monitored reset, in
the reset circuit too,
– shorts between contacts in the
input circuit.
` Automatic start: Unit is active once
the input circuit has been closed.

` Monitored reset: Unit i s ac t iv e o nc e
– the input circuit is closed and
then the reset circuit is closed
and opened again.
– the reset circuit is closed and
then opened again once the input circuit is closed.
` Increase in the number of available
contacts by connecting contact expander modules or external contactors/relays.

Wiring
Please note:
` Information given in the “Technical
details” must be followed.
` Outputs 13-14, 23-24, 33-34 are
safety contacts, outputs 41-42, 5152 are auxiliary contacts (e.g. for
display).
` To prevent contact welding, a fuse
should be connected before the
output contacts (see technical details).
