1.7  Exclusion of liability

We shall accept no liability for damages and malfunctions resulting from 
defective mounting or failure to comply with this operating instructions 
manual. The manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages resul-
ting from the use of unauthorised spare parts or accessories.

For safety reasons, invasive work on the device as well as arbitrary re-
pairs, conversions and modifications to the device are strictly forbidden; 
the manufacturer shall accept no liability for damages resulting from 
such invasive work, arbitrary repairs, conversions and/or modifications 
to the device.

2.  Product description

2.1  Ordering code

This operating instructions manual applies to the following types:

AES 123

No.

Option

Description

5

without start-up test

6

with start-up test

Only if the information described in this operating instructions 
manual are realised correctly, the safety function and therefore 
the compliance with the Machinery Directive is maintained.

2.2  Special versions

For special versions, which are not listed in the order code below 2.1, 
these specifications apply accordingly, provided that they correspond to 
the standard version.

2.3  Destination and use

The safety-monitoring modules for integration in safety circuits are desi-
gned for fitting in control cabinets. They are used for the safe evaluation 
of the signals of positive break position switches for safety functions 
or magnetic safety sensors on sliding, hinged and removable safety 
guards as well as emergency stop control devices.

Design

The safety-monitoring modules have a dual-channel structure. They 
include two safety relays with monitored positive action contacts. The 
NO contacts of the relays, which are wired in series, build the enabling 
contacts.

The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety 
component is integrated, must be validated to the relevant 
standards.
