Electrical connection

The following connection options are available:

 Ì

Separate operation

 Ì

Series connection with Y-distributors from EUCHNER (only with M12 plug con-

nector)

 Ì

Series connection, e.g. with wiring in the control cabinet.

 Ì

Operation on an AR evaluation unit

Warning!

In case of an error, loss of the safety function through incorrect connection.

 Ì

To ensure safety, both safety outputs (OA and OB) must always be evaluated.

 Ì

The monitoring output OUT and the door monitoring output OUT D are not 
allowed to be used as safety outputs.

 Ì

Lay the connection cables with protection to prevent the risk of short cir-
cuits.

Caution!

Risk of damage to equipment or malfunctions as a result of incorrect connection.

 Ì

The power supply for the evaluation electronics is electrically isolated from 
the power supply for the guard locking solenoid.

 Ì

The teach-in input and feedback loop, as well as LED 1 and LED 2, have the 
same ground potential as the guard locking solenoid.

 Ì

Do not use a control system with pulsing or switch off the pulsing function in 
your control system. The device generates its own clock signal on the out-
put lines OA/OB. A downstream control system must tolerate these pulses, 
which may have a length of up to 1 ms. 
The pulses are also output when the safety outputs are switched off.  
Depending on the inertia of the connected device (control system, relay, 
etc.), this can lead to short switching processes.

 Ì

The inputs on an evaluation unit connected must be positive-switching, as the 
two outputs on the safety switch deliver a level of +24 V in the switched-on 
state.

 Ì

All the electrical connections must either be isolated from the mains supply by 
a safety transformer according to IEC 61558-2-6 with limited output voltage in 
the event of a fault, or by other equivalent isolation measures (PELV).

 Ì

For use and operation as per the 

 requirements*, a power supply with 

the feature “for use in class 2 circuits” must be used. The same requirement 
applies to the safety outputs.
Alternative solutions must comply with the following requirements:
a) Electrically isolated power supply unit with a max. open-circuit voltage of 30 

V/DC and a limited current of max. 8 A.

b) Electrically isolated power supply unit in combination with fuse as per UL248. 

This fuse should be designed for max. 3.3 A and should be integrated into 
the 30 V DC voltage section.

 Ì

For use and applications as per the 

 requirements*, a connection cable 

listed under UL category code CYJV/7 must be used and the following re-
quirements met: min. 30 V DC, 2 A, 85 °C. The EUCHNER connection cables 
in the section Ordering information and accessories meet these require-
ments.

* Note on the scope of the UL approval: The devices are tested according to the requirements of UL508 and CSA/ C22.2 no. 14 (protection against electric shock and fire).
