No maintenance of the STO functionality is needed.
Security measures have to be taken by the user e.g. instal-
lation in a closed cabinet that is only accessible for skilled
personnel.
SISTEMA Data
Functional safety data is available via a data library for use
with the SISTEMA calculation tool from the IFA (Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health of the German Social
Accident Insurance), and data for manual calculation. The
library is permanently completed and extended.
1.6.1 Terminal 37 Safe Stop Function
The frequency converter is available with safe stop
functionality via control terminal 37. Safe stop disables the
control voltage of the power semiconductors of the
frequency converter output stage. This in turn prevents
generating the voltage required to rotate the motor. When
the Safe Stop (T37) is activated, the frequency converter
issues an alarm, trips the unit, and coasts the motor to a
stop. Manual restart is required. The safe stop function can
be used as an emergency stop for the frequency converter.
In normal operating mode when safe stop is not required,
use the regular stop function instead. When automatic

Operating Instructions
restart is used, ensure the requirements of ISO 12100-2
paragraph 5.3.2.5 are fulfilled.
Liability Conditions
It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that qualified
personnel installs and operates the safe stop function:
•
•
•
User is defined as: integrator, operator, service technician,
maintenance technician.
Standards
Use of safe stop on terminal 37 requires that the user
satisfies all provisions for safety including relevant laws,
regulations and guidelines. The optional safe stop function
complies with the following standards.
•
•
•

•
•
The information and instructions of the instruction manual
are not sufficient for a proper and safe use of the safe stop
functionality. The related information and instructions of
the relevant Design Guide must be followed.

Qualified and skilled personnel are required for
installation and commissioning of safety
engineering systems
The unit must be installed in an IP54 cabinet or
in an equivalent environment. In special
applications a higher IP degree is required
The cable between terminal 37 and the external
safety device must be short circuit protected
according to ISO 13849-2 table D.4
When external forces influence the motor axis (for
example, suspended loads), additional measures
are required (for example, a safety holding brake)
to eliminate potential hazards
