3.2 Intended use

WARNING

Intended use

Using the TwinSAFE drive option card for purposes other than intended, as described
below, is not permitted!


The AX5805 TwinSAFE drive option card extends the field of use of the Beckhoff AX5000 servo drive by
enabling safety functions that allow the servo drive to be used in the field of machine safety.

The following safety measures and safety instructions must be observed when
using the TwinSAFE drive option card:

DANGER

Remove power prior to installation

The servo drive must be disconnected from the mains and system voltage before installing
the TwinSAFE drive option card. Even when the AX5000 is disconnected from the mains
voltage, dangerous voltage continues to be present at the X02 terminals of the DC link for
at least 5 minutes. Wait until the DC link capacitors are discharged before touching live
terminals.

DANGER

Parameter set change of the AX5000!

The changing of the parameter sets of the AX5000 can not be used together with the
AX5805.

WARNING

Risk of personal injury or death

Electronic equipment is not fail-safe. The machine manufacturer is responsible for
ensuring that the connected motors and the machine are brought into a safe state in the
event of a fault in the drive system.

WARNING

Correctness of the parameters for a specific application

The AX5805 can check if its parameters are set correctly. It cannot check if the
parameters are correct for a specific application. This can only be checked in an
acceptance test, which the machine manufacturer must perform.

Especially the parameter Speed_Compare_Window should be left on the default value.
This parameter has a direct influence on the safety functions.
