Preface

About This Publication

This manual provides detailed installation instructions for wiring and
troubleshooting your Kinetix 6000 and Kinetix 7000 safe torque-off drives.
Included are interconnect diagrams with Allen-Bradley safety relays, GuardLogix
controllers, and GuardPLC controllers.

Audience

This manual is intended for engineers or technicians directly involved in the
installation and wiring of the Kinetix 6000 and Kinetix 7000 drives, and
programmers directly involved in the operation, field maintenance, and
integration of the Kinetix 6000 and Kinetix 7000 drives in a safe torque-off
application.

If you do not have a basic understanding of the Kinetix 6000 and Kinetix 7000
drives, contact your local Rockwell Automation sales representative for
information on available training courses.

Conventions Used in This
Manual

The following conventions are used throughout this manual:

Bulleted lists such as this one provide information, not procedural steps.
Numbered lists provide sequential steps or hierarchical information.

International Organization for
Standardization

Voluntary organization whose members are recognized authorities on standards, each one
representing a different country.

IEC

International Electrotechnical
Commission

Non-profit, non-governmental international standards organization that prepares and
publishes international standards for all electrical, electronic, and related technologies,
collectively known as electrotechnology.

PL

Performance Level

EN ISO 13849-1 safety rating.

SIL

Safety Integrity Level

The measure of a products ability to lower the risk that a dangerous failure could occur.

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.

HFT

Hardware Fault Tolerance

Equals N, where N+1 faults could cause the loss of the safety function. A hardware fault
tolerance of 1 means that 2 faults are required before safety is lost.

STO
