Overview of functions The easySafety device is an electronic and configurable
safety and control relay.Unlike conventional safety relays,
these functions are not permanently set but can be
configured as required. A safety control relay can therefore
be used for a wide range of safety and standard functions in
machine and plant construction.
The device is equipped with:
• Safety inputs and outputs.
• Test signal outputs.
• Safety function blocks.
• Logic functions.
• Time functions.
• Integrated display and operating elements.
A safety control relay enables you to implement a wide range
of safety and control functions for plant and machine
building applications. The wide variety of safety function
blocks enables you to protect the hazardous area and
prevent the occurrence any hazardous situations quickly and
easily, depending on the safety category required. The
configurable safety function blocks allow you to adapt your
project to the safety category required.
The easySafety device may also be used for monitoring
furnaces in accordance with EN 50156. For applications in
continuous operation in accordance with safety level 3 of
EN 50156 observe the note on Page 50.
The device uses its safety circuit diagram to monitor signal
transmitters that are used as part of safety systems on
machines for preventing hazards to persons or equipment,
j
Danger!
The safety function is implemented by switching off the
device outputs. In the safety state, the semiconductor
outputs are 0 and the relay outputs are open. With a 2-
channel architecture (category 3/4) use two device
outputs or the redundant relay output for the
disconnection.
