Safety functions
Safety functions maintain a safe condition on a plant or prevent hazardous conditions
arising on a plant.
The safety functions for electrical drives are defined in EN 61800-5-2.
The safety card implements the following safety functions:
}
Safe stop 1 (SS1)
}
Safe stop 2 (SS2)
}
Safe operating stop (SOS)
}
Safe speed range (SSR)
}
Safely limited speed (SLS)
}
Safe direction (SDI)
}
Safely Limited Increment (SLI)
Activation of safety functions
}
The safety functions are activated using the single-pole safe inputs on the safety card.
}
These inputs operate in accordance with the failsafe principle (on switching off). The
safety control system activates the safety functions via a 1/0 pulse edge.
Feedback from the safety functions
}
Message via single-pole semiconductor outputs
–
"1" signal: Inside the set limit values
–
"0" signal: Outside the set limit values
Simultaneous activation of safety functions
}
All safety functions can be active at the same time. However, safety function SS1 has
priority over all other safety functions.
}
If SS1 is activated, the drive is stopped in accordance with its configuration.
}
No other safety functions are processed or called up during this time.
Reaction to limit value violations and errors
}
When set limit values are exceeded, the E-STOP braking ramp is activated.
}
The safety function STO is activated if there are any internal errors on the safety card
or servo amplifier. The power element is switched off.
4.3.1
Safe torque off - STO
The safety function "Safe Torque Off" (STO) removes the power to the motor. It is imple-
mented via the servo amplifier's shutdown path and the safety card's safe outputs.
Features of the safety function:
}
The motor becomes torque-free and no longer generates any hazardous movements.
}
To prevent the drive running down in an uncontrolled manner, in normal operation the
safety function STO is activated via the safety function SS1.
}
STO is only activated directly when
–
there is an internal error on the servo amplifier or safety card
