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.
After pressing the stop button and the delay time set in the EP-1922, the spring-operated interlock
can be activated with the unlock button and the safety door can be opened. When the power supply
is turned off, the safety door cannot be opened if the locking mechanism is engaged. We recommend
using switches with mechanical unlocking capabilities.
The EP-19xx switches on the 24-V supply for modules within the safety segment if:
•
Emergency button is unlocked
•
Safety door is closed
•
Locking mechanism is engaged
•
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.
