Intended use
The expansion module monitors standstill, speed and direction of rotation in accordance
with EN ISO 138491 up to PL e and EN IEC 62061 up to SIL CL 3.
The expansion module may only be connected to a base unit from the configurable control
system PNOZmulti (please refer to the document "PNOZmulti System Expansion" for de
tails of the base units that can be connected)
The configurable control system PNOZmulti is used for the safetyrelated interruption of
safety circuits and is designed for use in:
}
ESTOP equipment
}
Safety circuits in accordance with VDE 0113 Part 1 and EN 602041

WARNING!
Users must take appropriate measures to detect or exclude errors (e.g. slip
page or broken shearpin) which cause the frequency of the encoder signal
to no longer be proportional to the monitored speed.
Appropriate measures are:
– Using the monitored encoder to also control the drive
– Mechanical solutions
– Monitoring for broken shearpin by means of the speed monitor
WARNING!
A singlechannel open circuit/input device error is recognised and leads to a
safe condition of the outputs at the relevant axis.
For applications in accordance with PL e and SIL CL 3, the "Overspeed"
output must be integrated into the safety function in every operating mode
and evaluated so that a shutdown occurs if the output switches to a safe
condition ("Overspeed" output = "0").
