Preface

About This Publication

This manual explains how the Kinetix® 6200 and Kinetix 6500 drives can be used

in Safety Integrity Level (SIL) CL3, Performance Level [PLe], or Category

(CAT) 4 applications. It describes the safety requirements, including PFD and

PFH values and application verification information, and provides information

on configuring and troubleshooting the Kinetix 6200 and Kinetix 6500 drives

with safe torque-off functionality.

Who Should Use This Manual

Use this manual if you are responsible for designing, configuring, or

troubleshooting safety applications that use Kinetix 6200 or Kinetix 6500 drives

with safe torque-off functionality.

You must have a basic understanding of electrical circuitry and familiarity with

Kinetix 6200 and Kinetix 6500 drives. You must also be trained and experienced

in the creation, operation, and maintenance of safety systems.

Terminology

Definition

1oo2

One out of Two

Refers to the behavioral design of a dual-channel safety system.

CAT

Category

EN

European Norm

The official European Standard.

ESPE

Electro-sensitive Protective Equipment

An assembly of devices and/or components working together for protective tripping or presence-
sensing purposes and comprising as a minimum:

·a sensing device.

·controlling/monitoring devices.

·output signal-switching devices (OSSD).

FMEA

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis

Analysis of potential failure modes to determine the effect upon the system and identify ways to
mitigate those effects.

IEC

International Electrotechnical Commission

IGBT

Insulated Gate Bi-polar Transistors

Typical power switch used to control main current.

HFT

Hardware Fault Tolerance

The HFT equals

n, where n+1 faults could cause the loss of the safety function. An HFT of 1 means

that 2 faults are required before safety is lost.

MP

Motion Power

OSSD

Output Signal-switching Device

The component of the electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE) connected to the control system
of a machine, which, when the sensing device is actuated during normal operation, responds by
going to the OFF-state.

PC

Personal Computer

Computer used to interface with and program your safety system.

PFD

Probability of Failure on Demand

The average probability of a system to fail to perform its design function on demand.

PFH

Probability of Failure per Hour

The probability of a system to have a dangerous failure occur per hour.

PL

Performance Level

ISO 13849-1 safety rating.
