Safety sensor/operating
mechanism
Notes
Note: All example applications shown are proposals without warranty. In any case the operator has
to perform a safety review of the entire site.
When the emergency stop button is pushed, the EP-19xx switches off the 24-V supply for the
modules (switchable modules refer to the section, General Contact Information) within the safety
segment and thus also contactors K3 and K4. The failure of a switching element in the emergency
stop button or the safety door contact as well as a cross-circuit in their supply lines does not result in
the failure of the emergency stop mechanism and is detected within the fault-reaction time.
A stop is performed by switching off K3 and K4 via the PLC. The door can be opened when the PLC
releases the interlock.
The EP-19xx switches on the 24-V supply for modules within the safety segment if
•
Emergency button is unlocked
•
Safety door is closed
•
PLC has activated and engaged the interlock
•
Feedback circuit (NC contacts of K3 and K4) is closed
•
Start push button has been pushed and released again
Contactors K3 and K4 are controlled by the PLC and can switch on as soon as the EP-19xx has
switched on the 24-V supply.
