  • Page 28: Temperature Measurement

    The key parameter is always the maximum permitted internally measured temperature of 95°C, above which the TwinSAFE components switch to safe state and report an error. The internal temperature can be read from the TwinSAFE components via CoE. Version: 2.0.0 EP1918-0002 and EP1918-2202...
  • Page 29: Signal Cables

    When connecting a single switching contact via a dedicated continuous cable (or via a sheathed cable), the maximum permitted cable length is 100 m if a sensor test is active. The use of contact points, connectors or additional switching contacts in the cabling reduces the maximum propagation.
