Interlocks with power to lock principle may only be used in special cases after a thorough evaluation of
the accident risk, since the safety guard can be opened immediately on failure of the power supply or
upon activation of the main switch.
Series-wiring
Series-wiring can be set up. In the case of a series connection, the risk time remains unchanged and the reaction
time increases by the sum of the reaction time of the inputs per additional unit specified in the technical data. The
quantity of devices is only limited by the cable drops and the external cable fuse protection, according to the
technical data. Up to 31 device variants with serial diagnostics can be wired in series.

The user must evaluate and design the safety chain in accordance with the relevant standards and the
required safety level. If multiple safety sensors are involved in the same safety function, the PFH
values of the individual components must be added.
2
The entire concept of the control system, in which the safety component is integrated, must be
validated to the relevant standards.
