Electrical connection

Warning!

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

 Ì

Monitoring outputs must not 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

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 volt-
age 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 ap-
plies 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

All electrical outputs and safety contacts must have an adequate protective 
circuit for inductive loads. The outputs must be protected with a free-wheel-
ing diode for this purpose.

 Ì

The tightening torque for the screws on the connection terminals must be 
0.6 ... 0.8 Nm.

 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.

Safety in case of faults

 Ì

The operating voltage U

B

 is reverse polarity protected. 

 Ì

The connections UB AR and 0V AR for the read heads are not short circuit-

proof.

 Ì

A short circuit between safety contacts can only be detected by external puls-

ing. 

 Ì

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