    User Manual - QG40N Tilt/Acceleration Switch (SIL1 PLc) V2.0 4 Functional Description Safety Switch Explained The safety function of the switch sensor is to generate the requested switching behaviour based on inclination or acceleration values (caused by gravitation) measured by a MEMS acceleration sensor chip.
  • Page 7: Safety Level

    User Manual - QG40N Tilt/Acceleration Switch (SIL1 PLc) V2.0 Safety Level SIL safety level: SIL CL1 (claim limit 1 according to IEC 62061) PL safety level: PLc (according to EN ISO 13849) Architecture: HFT=0 (according to IEC 62061) & CAT2 (according to EN ISO 13849) This is a self-certified safety device.

    The output of the sensor can be extra filtered by a 1 order low-pass filter. Default this output filter is disabled. Via the optional ‘QG40N configurator’ a -3dB frequency or RC-time can be configured. A longer low-pass filter time results is a smaller bandwidth and therefore a more stable output signal (less noise), but also more phase delay.
  • Page 9: Output Explained

    User Manual - QG40N Tilt/Acceleration Switch (SIL1 PLc) V2.0 Output Explained DIS Tilt/Acceleration switch has either PNP or NPN output, the connection of the load depends on the output type. Figure 1 - PNP output Figure 2 - NPN output In case the sensor is defect, or cable is broken, the sensor is in non-conducting mode, which is "critical".
  • Page 10: Zero Adjustment

    User Manual - QG40N Tilt/Acceleration Switch (SIL1 PLc) V2.0 Zero Adjustment To eliminate mechanical offsets, a zero adjustment can be performed during the 1 minute after power up the zeroing input is sensitive for a zeroing action. Sequence: 1. Left input unconnected during power up for at least 0.5s 2.
  • Page 11: Switch Points

    User Manual - QG40N Tilt/Acceleration Switch (SIL1 PLc) V2.0 4.7.1 Switch Points Switch points (±S) is a pair of pre-defined angles which set off the operation zone and critical zone (→4.5 Output explained). The S can be set with a unit of 0.1° and in default only symmetrical switch points are allowed, ie.
