(2) Fail-safe measures for PLC failure
While failure of a CPU module and its memory can be detected by the self-
diagnostics function, an error occurred in I/O control area may not be detected by the
CPU module.
In such a case, depending on the condition of the failure, all device points could turn
ON or OFF resulting in a situation where normal operations of the control target and
safety cannot be ensured.
Though Mitsubishi PLCs are manufactured under strict quality control, create a fail-
safe circuit outside the PLC to prevent mechanical damage and accidents in the case
of a PLC failure occurred due to any cause.
Examples of a system and its fail-safe circuitry are described below:
<System example>
*1
The output module for fail-safe purpose should be mounted on the last slot of the system.
(YB0 to YBF in the above system.)
<Fail safe circuit example>
*2
Since YB0 turns ON and OFF alternatively at 0.5 second intervals, use a contactless output
module (a transistor is used in the above example).
*3
If an off delay timer (especially miniature timer) is not available, construct a fail-safe circuit
using an on delay timer shown on the next page.
