If the device is operated in IT networks, the potential conditions will change in the event of a fault
(earth fault on the feeding mains supply). As a result, the rated voltage of 300 V to PE – which has
important implications for the design of insulation and network disconnection – will be exceeded.
This error must be detected.
–
Use of a diagnostic output for connection of a safety function.
The diagnostic outputs STA and SBA are not part of the safety circuit. The diagnostic outputs are
used to improve diagnostic coverage of the related safety sub-function. The diagnostic outputs
may only be used in combination with the related safe control signals (AND operation) plus a
reliable time monitoring function in the safety relay unit for the purpose of switching additional
safety-critical functions.
Foreseeable misuse of the safety sub-function STO
–
Use of the STO function without external measures for drive axis influenced by external torques.
If external torques influence the drive axis, use of the safety sub-function STO on its own is
not suitable for stopping the axis safely. Additional measures are required to prevent dangerous
movements of the drive axis, such as use of a mechanical brake in combination with the safety
sub-function SBC.
–
Disconnection of the motor from the power supply.
The safety sub-function STO does not disconnect the drive from the power supply as defined by
electrical safety.
Foreseeable misuse of the safety sub-function SBC
–
Use of an unsuitable holding brake or clamping unit, also in view of:
–
Holding or brake torque and emergency brake characteristics, if required.
–
Frequency of actuation
–
Use of an unsuitable logic voltage supply
