This device is a two-channel safety switching device with self-monitoring on each ON-OFF cycle.  It conforms to EN 60204-1 and is equipped with positively driven relays.  It is intended for monitoring connected switching elements on separating safety devices and generating a safety-oriented output signal (enable).  Depending on the design, separating safety devices may include protective screens, safety doors, enclosures, covers, screens, etc.

Basic Function:   After supply voltage has been connected to terminals A1/A2 and the safety inputs closed, operating the reset button closes the enabling current paths (manual start).  When the safety inputs are opened the enabling current paths will open.

Operating modes / system functions

Two-channel activation   The device uses two-channel activation.  With equivalent activation safety channel CH2 via negative potential.  With non-equivalent activation both safety channels are connected to positive potential.

Cross-monitoring   With equivalent activation cross monitoring is achieved by means of the short-circuit principle; with non-equivalent activation it is achieved through functional density.

Manual start   When the safety inputs are closed, a button is used to close reset input S34 and then open it again (triggering with failing edge) or to close reset input S35 (triggering with rising edge).

Automatic start   Reset input S35 is connected to S33/S14.  The device starts with the rising edge of the signal on safety input S14.

Starting lockout   After supply voltage has been connected and the safety inputs closed, the enabling paths will not close.  Starting is only possible after the reset button has been operated.  For starting lockout the reset inputs have to be activated with the button as in manual start mode.

Restarting lockout   No restart after the safety inputs have been opened and closed.  Restarting is only possible after the reset button has been operated.  For restarting lockout the reset inputs have to be activated with the button, as in manual start mode.

Synchro-check   Synchro-check is only possible in automatic start mode (bridge S33/S14-S35).  After safety channel CH1, safety channel CH2 must close (S24) or open (S22) within the synchronous time ts.  If CH2 closes or opens before CH1, the synchronous time ts = infinity.
