Application information
Sensors
If the sensors are part of the delivery, they are connected to a central terminal box with
cables. The central terminal box offers possibilities for connecting several sensors with
M12 5-pole connections.
Motor
The motor can be connected directly or through an operating switch in the main power
supply switch box. The machine can be controlled with a frequency converter to ensure
smooth start and stop movement.
The setting range depends on the motor specifications.
If a power controller controls the machine drive, the European EMC directives concerning
the electrical system must be adhered to. For power controller installation information,
please contact the supplier of the power controller.
5.4.2 Safety controls
These provisions must be designed according to a Performance Level (PL) indicator that
corresponds with the current standard for safety functions of a machine or a machine
control in compliance with EN ISO 13849-1:2008. To the machine a PL_d applies, in which
d indicates that the risk must be substantially reduced.
Guard the access door with a safety switch
If the fenced area has an access door, it must be guarded with a safety switch (blocking
device). When opening the door, this switch activates the emergency stop and safety
circuit, switching off the main power and the control current to the machine.
Emergency stop circuit
The machine must have an emergency stop circuit. When one of the emergency stop
buttons is pressed, the main power and the control current to the machine are switched off
immediately.
Set the motor protection relay
Motor protection devices must be set to the nominal motor current. A relay set too low
prevents optimum use of the motor. A relay set too high does not guarantee full thermal
protection.
When a correctly set relay trips too often, reduce the load of the motor or use a larger
motor.
Thermistor protection (TF contact)
For motors that are frequently started and stopped, intermittently operated, use a high
switching frequency or power controller, it is essential to use a motor protection relay and
thermistor protection. This is to avoid prematurely switching the motor protection relay or
overheating of the motor winding in these operational conditions.
Check continuously moving of products
It is necessary to check if the products are continuously moving during transport to the
infeed and outfeed position by means of time monitoring in the software. When the time is
exceeded, the machine must immediately stop to avoid damage.
