Basic Safety - STO
DANGER!
With the "Safe torque off" (STO) function, no "emergency‑stop" can be executed according to EN 60204−1
without additional measures. There is no electrical isolation between the motor and inverter and no service
switch or maintenance switch!
Possible consequences: Death or severe injuries
▶ "Emergency stop" requires electrical isolation, e. g. via a central mains contactor.
