Alternatively, the simplified method according to section 6.3 of EN 13849-1:2015 can be used for calculation. The AR switch chain subsystem, in combination with evaluation unit CES-AR-AES-12, complies with PL e, category 4 according to EN 13849-1. 2098221-06-08/20 (Translation of the original operating instructions)
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 5. General safety precautions Safety switches fulfill personnel protection functions. Incorrect installation or tampering can lead to fatal injuries to personnel. Check the safe function of the safeguard particularly Ì after any setup work Ì...
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 6. Function The AR evaluation unit is used to evaluate the individual safety switches in an AR switch chain and to reliably interrupt a safety circuit. The switching states of the connected safety switches can be signaled by means of monitoring outputs.
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 8. Electrical connection WARNING In the event of a fault, loss of the safety function due to incorrect connection. Ì Monitoring outputs must not be used as safety outputs. Ì Lay the connecting cables with protection to prevent the risk of short circuits.
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 8.3. Power supply The power supply of DC 24 V is supplied to the AR evaluation unit. The AR switch chain must be supplied with DC 24 V by the AR evaluation unit. +24 V...
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 8.5. Starting behavior The AR evaluation unit can be put into operation either using the autostart mode or by starting it manually. Important! If the configuration for the starting behavior is changed during operation (e.g. jumper removed), this change will be detected by the unit.
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 8.6. Connecting safety contacts and feedback loop Important! If you do not connect the feedback loop, the downstream devices will not be monitored. This situation will affect the safety category of your system. The unit has four redundant, positively driven safety contacts that switch off immediately if the actuator is removed at one of the connected safety switches or if a fault occurs.
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 The following conditions must be met for the safety contacts to be closed: For manual start Ì The feedback loop is closed Ì The start button has been pressed and released (switches on falling edge) Ì...
Operating Instructions AR Evaluation Unit CES-AR-AES-12 9. Setup WARNING Ì Pay attention to the notes on setup and on the teach-in process in the operating instructions for the safety switch used. Ì Observe correct connection on devices with teach-in input.
