1. Brief description of the system
The sounders of the DS..-SIL series are audible warnings for the signalling of dangerous situations in safety
relevant applications, e.g. as an intrinsic part of an E/E/PE system (according to EN61508).
Fig. 1 Overview
The sounders are for constructed for the robust requirements in industrial circumstances and can reach a
sound level of up to 110dB(A). The sounders suited to indoor and outdoor use create a warning signal in 30
different tones which can be selected with the help of an internal DIP switch. There is also the possibility of
(optionally) switching to three other tones with external control. Next to these factory settings, the combina-
tion of tones can be freely arranged by on-site programming. The function of the sounder is internally moni-
tored electrically and acoustically by a diagnosis channel. If an acoustic warning signal is made, then an
MOS relay is conductive. This information can be interpreted with a superior control.
