voltage category III), Protective separation (overvoltage category II)
Function Description
The safety relay PNOZ 16P provides a safety-oriented interruption of a safety circuit. When
supply voltage is supplied the "POWER" LED is lit. The unit is ready for operation when the
feedback loop Y1-Y2 and the start circuit S33-S34 are closed.
}
Input circuit is closed (e.g. E-STOP pushbutton not operated):
– The LEDs "CH.1" and "CH.2" are lit.
– Safety contacts 13-14 and 23-24 are closed. The unit is active.
– A high signal is present at the semiconductor output switch state Y32.
}
Input circuit is opened (e.g. E-STOP pushbutton operated):
– The LEDs "CH.1" and "CH.2" go out.
– Safety contacts 13-14 and 23-24 are redundantly opened.
– A low signal is present at the semiconductor output switch state Y32.
Semiconductor output short across contact Y35
}
A high signal is present at semi-conductor output Y35 if the supply voltage is present
and the internal fuse has not blown.
Operating modes
}
Single-channel operation: No redundancy in the input circuit, earth faults in the start
and input circuit are detected.
}
Dual-channel operation with detection of shorts across contacts: Redundant input cir-
cuit, PNOZ 16SP detects
– earth faults in the start and input circuit,
– short circuits in the input circuit,
– shorts across contacts in the input circuit.
