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 or the safety door is opened, 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 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.
The EP-19xx switches on the 24-V supply for the modules within the safety segment if:
Emergency stop button is unlocked
Safety door is closed
Feedback circuit (NC contacts of K3 and K4) is closed
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. To reset the system, press the reset button within 0.1 to 2 s after
switching on the power supply, even when automatic reset is used.
