General Description
The DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option, when used with PowerFlex 40P or
PowerFlex 70 drives together with other safety components, provides a safety
function which inhibits torque generation in the motor(s) powered by the
drive. When used with PowerFlex 40P or PowerFlex 70 drive, the DriveGuard
Safe Torque Off option has been certified to meet the requirements for SIL 2
according to EN/IEC 61800-5-2 and IEC 61508, and PL d and Category 3
according to EN ISO 13849-1. The DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option is
just one component in a safety control system. Components in the system
must be chosen and applied appropriately to achieve the desired level of
safeguarding.
What Is the DriveGuard Safe Torque Off Option?
The DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option:
• Provides the “Safe torque off (STO)” function defined in EN/IEC
61800-5-2.
• Blocks gate firing signals from reaching the IGBT output power devices
of the drive. This prevents the IGBT’s from switching in the sequence
necessary to generate torque in the connected motor.
• Can be used in combination with other safety devices to fulfill the
requirements of a system “safe torque off” function which satisfies
Category 3 / PL (d) according to EN ISO 13849-1 and SIL CL 2
according to EN/IEC 62061, IEC 61508, and EN/IEC 61800-5-2.
This option is suitable for performing only mechanical work on the drive system or
affected area of a machine. It does NOT disconnect or isolate the drive power output
to the motor.
This option should not be used as a control for normal starting and/or stopping the
drive.

General Description
ATTENTION: Electrical Shock Hazard. Verify that all sources of AC and DC power are
de-energized and locked out or tagged out in accordance with the requirements of
ANSI/NFPA 70E, Part II.
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage on the bus
capacitors has discharged before performing any work on the drive. Measure the DC bus
voltage at the +DC and -DC terminals or test points (refer to your drive’s User Manual for
locations). The voltage must be zero.
ATTENTION: In Safe Torque Off mode, hazardous voltages may still be present at the
motor. To avoid an electric shock hazard, disconnect power to the motor and verify that
the voltage is zero before performing any work on the motor.
ATTENTION: In the event of the failure of two output IGBT's in the drive, when the
DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option has controlled the drive outputs to the off state, the
drive may provide energy for up to 180° of rotation in a 2-pole motor before torque
production in the motor ceases.

Important Safety Considerations
The system user is responsible for:
• the set-up, safety rating, and validation of any sensors or actuators
connected to the system.
• completing a system-level risk assessment and reassessing the system any
time a change is made.
• certification of the system to the desired safety performance level.
• project management and proof testing.
• programming the application software and the safety option
configurations in accordance with the information in this manual.
• access control to the system, including password handling.
• analyzing all configuration settings and choosing the proper setting to
achieve the required safety rating.
When applying Functional Safety, restrict access to qualified, authorized personnel
who are trained and experienced.
ATTENTION: When designing your system, consider how personnel will exit the
machine if the door locks while they are in the machine. Additional safeguarding
devices may be required for your specific application.
Rockwell Automation Publication PFLEX-UM003B-EN-P - July 20125
General Description
Safe State
The DriveGuard Safe Torque Off option is intended for use in safety-related
applications where the de-energized state is the safe state. All of the examples
in the Description of Operation section are based on achieving the
de-energization as the safe state.
Safety Category 3 / PL (d) Performance Definition
To achieve Safety Category 3 / PL (d) according to EN ISO 13849-1, the
safety-related parts have to be designed such that:
• the safety-related parts of machine control systems and/or their protective
equipment, as well as their components, shall be designed, constructed,
selected, assembled, and combined in accordance with relevant standards
so that they can withstand expected conditions.
• well tried safety principles shall be applied.
• a single fault in any of its parts does not lead to a loss of safety function.
• some but not all faults will be detected.
• the accumulation of undetected faults can lead to loss of safety function.
• short circuits in the external wiring of the safety inputs is not one of the
faults that can be detected by the system, therefore, according to EN ISO
13849-2, these cables must be installed so as to be protected against
external damage by cable ducting or armor.
• whenever reasonably practical a single fault shall be detected at or before
the next demand of the safety function.
• the average diagnostic coverage of the safety-related parts of the control
system shall be low.
• the mean time to dangerous failure of each of the redundant channels
shall be low to high.

General Description
IMPORTANT
Stop Category Definitions
The selection of a stop category for each stop function must be determined by
a risk assessment.
• Stop Category 0 is achieved with immediate removal of power to the
actuator, resulting in an uncontrolled coast to stop. See “Description of
Operation” Example 1 on page 20
• Stop Category 1 is achieved with power available to the machine actuators
to achieve the stop. Power is removed from the actuators when the stop is
achieved. See “Description of Operation” Example 2 on page 21
When designing the machine application, timing and distance should be considered
for a coast to stop (Stop Category 0 or Safe Torque Off). For more information
regarding stop categories, refer to EN/IEC 60204-1.

Performance Level and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) CL2
For safety-related control systems, Performance Level (PL), according to EN
ISO 13849-1, and SIL levels, according to IEC 61508 and EN/IEC 62061,
include a rating of the system’s ability to perform its safety functions. All of
the safety-related components of the control system must be included in both
a risk assessment and the determination of the achieved levels.
Refer to the EN ISO 13849-1, IEC 61508, and EN/IEC 62061 standards for
complete information on requirements for PL and SIL determination.
PFD and PFH Definitions
Safety-related systems can be classified as operating in either a Low Demand
mode, or in a High Demand/Continuous mode.
• Low Demand mode: where the frequency of demands for operation made
on a safety-related system is no greater than one per year or no greater
than twice the proof-test frequency.
• High Demand/Continuous mode: where the frequency of demands for
operation made on a safety-related system is greater than once per year or
greater than twice the proof test interval.
Rockwell Automation Publication PFLEX-UM003B-EN-P - July 20127
General Description
The SIL value for a low demand safety-related system is directly related to
order-of-magnitude ranges of its average probability of failure to satisfactorily
perform its safety function on demand or, simply, average probability of
failure on demand (PFD). The SIL value for a High Demand/Continuous
mode safety-related system is directly related to the probability of a dangerous
failure occurring per hour (PFH).
PFD and PFH Data
These PFD and PFH calculations are based on the equations from Part 6 of
IEC 61508 and show worst-case values.
This table provides data for a 20-year proof test interval and demonstrates the
worst-case effect of various configuration changes on the data.
