5  Operating principle and settings

AES 2155/2156

Monitoring of two safety switches, which are simultaneously actuated 

by a safety guard (e.g. safety guard, diversitary actuation). The number 

of connected safety switches is restricted by the contract transition resist-

ance and the conduction resistance. This overall resistance must not 

exceed 300 Ω. For magnetic safety sensors with LED, the brightness of 

the LED’s reduce as the amount of guard doors opened increases.

AES 2165/2166

Monitoring of safety switches, which are actuated by different safety 

guards (e.g. two guard doors, which are opened independently from 

one another).

Operating principle after the operating voltage is switched on

Without start-up test AES 2155 / 2165

1. The functionality of the safety-monitoring module is tested.

2.  If the safety guard is closed, the enabling path of the safety-monitoring 

module will close. The LED is green.

3.  The cable and the connected safety switch are only tested when the 

safety guard is opened or the emergency stop button when actuated.

With start-up test AES 2156 / 2166

1. The functionality of the safety-monitoring module is tested.

2.  The safety guard must be actuated, in order to check the cables and 

the connected safety switch (start-up test).

3.  If the safety guard is closed, the enabling path of the safety-monitoring 

module will close. The LED is green.

If the safety guard is opened, the enabling path of the safety-monitoring 

module will open. The machine is stopped and the LED flashes yellow.

Inputs S1-S14/S22;  S2-S14/S22

Safety switches with one NC and one NO contact must be connected to 

the inputs S1/S2.

Enable delay time X5/X6

By bridging the connections X5/X5, the enable delay time (i.e. time 

during which after the first closing of the guard, bouncing of the switch 

contacts or of the entire guard is possible without error message) can 

be extended from 0.1 s to 1 s. The enable delay time simultaneously 

is the minimum time, expiring between the guard being closed and the 

relays being activated.

Enabling path 13-14

NO contacts for safety functions

6  Set-up and maintenance

6.1  Functional testing

The safety function of the safety-monitoring module must be tested. 

The following conditions must be previously checked and met:

1. Correct fitting of the safety-monitoring module

2. Fitting and integrity of the power cable

6.2  Maintenance

In the case of correct installation and adequate use, the safety-monitoring 

module features maintenance-free functionality. 

A regular visual inspection and functional test, including the following 

steps, is recommended:

• Check the correct fixing of the safety monitoring module

• Check the cable for damage.

Damaged or defective components must be replaced.

7  Disassembly and disposal

7.1  Disassembly

The safety monitoring module must be disassembled in the de-energised 

condition only.

7.2  Disposal

The safety monitoring module must be disposed of in an appropriate 

manner in accordance with the national prescriptions and legislations.

8  Appendix

8.1  Wiring examples

The application examples shown are suggestions. They however do not 

release the user from carefully checking whether the switchgear and its 

set-up are suitable for the individual application.

The wiring diagram is shown with guard doors closed and in a de-

energised condition. Inductive loads (e.g. contactors, relays, etc.) are 

to be provided with suitable interference suppression circuitry. Do not 

connect additional loads to terminal S..
