2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The intended use of the Sentry safety relay is to monitor the state of a safety device and
depending on the state, activate or inactivate the outputs within the system response time.
The protective function of the safety device is only safe if the safety relay is correctly
connected and configured. The safety relay is not by itself a complete protective device.
• Use the safety relay as a safety monitoring device.
• Use the safety relay as expansion device of safe outputs
• The safety relay is not intended for use in explosive or easily flammable adjacent air.
• Other use than defined as correct is considered as incorrect use.
