3-3 Operating Manual: PSS 3075-3 Series
For category 4 applications, shorts between the input contacts must be
detected. This can be achieved through the use of test pulses on the PSS
or, depending on the type of input device, through a feasibility test or
through detection of shorts across the contacts on the input device (e.g.
light barrier) (for connection examples please see Chapter 7, “Wiring the
Inputs and Outputs”).
Single-pole outputs (DOS)
An additional shutdown route means that the outputs on the PSS can be
used in single-channel operation for applications up to
category 3 in
accordance with EN 954-1 (03/97). Please note that in this case a
feedback circuit must be used.
To achieve
category 4 , two actuators must be connected in series to two
different outputs.
Dual-pole outputs (DOZ)
The dual-pole outputs can be used for applications up to
category 4 in accordance with EN 954-1 (03/97).
