2.4 Purpose
The non-contact, electronic safety switchgear is designed for
application in safety circuits and is used for monitoring the position and
locking of movable safety guards.
The safety switchgears are classified according to ISO 14119
as type 4 interlocking devices. Designs with individual coding
are classified as highly coded.
The different variants can be used as safety switch with interlocking
function either as solenoid interlock.
If the risk analysis indicates the use of a monitored interlock
then a variant with the monitored interlock is to be used,
labelled with the symbol.
The actuator monitoring variant (B) is a safety switch with an
interlock function for process protection.
The safety function consists of safely switching off the safety outputs
when the safety guard is opened and maintaining the safe switched off
condition of the safety outputs for as long as the safety guard is open.
Interlocks with power to lock principle may only be used in
special cases after a thorough evaluation of the accident risk,
since the safety guard can be opened immediately on failure
of the power supply or upon activation of the main switch.
Emergency exit (-T/-T8)
Fitting and actuation only from within the hazardous area.
To activate the emergency exit, turn the red lever in the direction of
the arrow to the end stop. The safety outputs switch off and the guard
system can be opened. The blocked position is cancelled by turning
the lever in the opposite direction. In the unlocked position, the guard
system is secured against unintentional locking.
Emergency release (-N)
Mounting and actuation only outside of the safety guard.
To activate the emergency release turn the red lever in the direction of
the arrow to the end stop. The safety outputs switch off and the guard
system can be opened. The lever is latched and cannot be returned to its
original position. To cancel the blocking condition, the central mounting
screw must be loosened to such extent that the lever can be turned back
into its original position. The screw must then be re-tightened.
Series-wiring
Series-wiring can be set up. Response and risk times remain
unchanged by series-wiring. The number of components is only limited
by the external cable protection according to the technical data and
the line loss. Series-wiring of up to 31 AZM300 … SD components with
serial diagnostics is possible. In devices with the serial diagnostics
function (ordering suffix -SD), the serial diagnostics connections
are wired in series and connected to a SD Gateway for evaluation
purposes. Wiring examples for series-wiring, refer to appendix.
The user must evaluate and design the safety chain in
accordance with the relevant standards and the required
safety level. If multiple safety sensors are involved in the
same safety function, the PFH values of the individual
components must be added.
The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety
component is integrated, must be validated to the relevant
standards.
