  • Page 4 [Design Precautions] WARNING ● When the safety extension module detects a fault in an external power supply or itself, it turns off the outputs. Configure an external circuit so that the connected devices are powered off according to the output status (off) of the safety extension module. Incorrect configuration may result in an accident. ●...
  • Page 5 [Design Precautions] CAUTION ● During the control of an inductive load such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve, a large current (approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from off to on. Take proper measures so that the flowing current dose does not exceed the value corresponding to the maximum load specification of the resistance load.

Installation precautions • Safety extension modules fulfill the EMC requirements in accordance with the basic specification IEC 61000-6-2 and EN 61131-2 for industrial use. • Mitsubishi industrial safety devices are designed only for DC power supply applications which have one power supply and one power supply destination.
  • Page 107 Wiring precautions • Power OFF the entire system while wiring. Otherwise, the system may be activated unexpectedly while connecting to devices. • Electrical installation should be designed in accordance with IEC 60204-1. • All connected sensors and downstream controllers and wiring/installation must correspond to the required category according to EN ISO 13849-1 and to the SILCL according to EN 62061 (protected installation, single plastic-sheathed cable with shielding).

  • Page 109 Optical sensors When optical sensors are used for muting sensors, install the sensors with background suppression so that only materials to be transported can meet the muting condition. By using the optical sensors with background suppression, these can detect material only up to a specific distance. Objects that are further than the material to be detected are not detected.

As soon as the muting sensors A1 and A2 are activated, a protection function provided by the protective equipment (ESPE) is temporality disabled. The protection function remains disabled until one of the sensors within the muting sensors B1 and B2 is enabled again.
