Caution!

 Ì

All electrical outputs must have an adequate protective circuit for inductive 
loads. The outputs must be protected with a free-wheeling diode for this pur-
pose. RC interference suppression units must not be used.

 Ì

Power devices which are a powerful source of interference must be installed 
in a separate location away from the input and output circuits for signal pro-
cessing. The cable routing for safety circuits should be as far away as pos-
sible from the cables of the power circuits.

 Ì

In order to avoid EMC interference, the physical environmental and operating 
conditions at the installation site of the device must comply with the require-
ments according to the standard EN 60204-1:2006, section 4.4.2 (EMC).

 Ì

Please pay attention to any interference fields in case of devices such as 
frequency converters or induction heating systems. Observe the EMC in-
structions in the manuals from the respective manufacturer.

Important:

If the device does not appear to function when operating voltage is applied (e.g. 
green STATE LED does not flash), the safety switch must be returned unopened 
to the manufacturer.

Safety in case of faults

 Ì

The operating voltage U

B

 and the solenoid voltage UCM are reverse polarity 

protected. 

 Ì

The contacts IA/IB and OA/OB are short-circuit-proof

 Ì

A short circuit between OA and OB is detected by the switch. 

 Ì

A short circuit in the cable can be excluded by laying the cable with protection. 

Fuse protection for power supply

The power supply must be provided with fuse protection depending on the number 

of switches and current required for the outputs. The following rules apply:
Max. current consumption of an individual switch I
