6.2  Maintenance

A regular visual inspection and functional test, including the following 

steps, is recommended:

1. Check the correct fixing of the input expander module

2. Check the cable for damages

3. Check electrical function

If a manual functional check is necessary to detect a possible 

accumulation of faults, then this must take place during the 

intervals noted as follows:

•  at least every month for PL e with category 3 or  

category 4 (according to ISO 13849-1) or SIL 3 with HFT 

(hardware fault tolerance) = 1 (according to IEC 62061);

•  at least every 12 months for PL d with category 3  

(according to ISO 13489-1) or SIL 2 with HFT  

(hardware fault tolerance) = 1 (according to IEC 62061).

Damaged or defective components must be replaced.

7.  Disassembly and disposal

7.1  Disassembly

The input expander module must be disassembled  

in the de-energised condition only.

Insert a screwdriver at the marked position, press in the direction of the 

cover and remove.

7.2  Disposal

The input expander module must be disposed of in an appropriate 

manner in accordance with the national prescriptions and legislations.

Dual-channel control of magnetic safety sensors to IEC 60947-5-3 

(see Fig. 4)

•  The control system recognises wire breakage and earth faults in the 

control circuit.

•  Cross-wire shorts between the monitoring circuits are detected.

•  If the inputs S1, S3, S5 and S7 are not used, they have to be  

bridged to +.

•  If the inputs S2, S4, S6 and S8 are not used, they have to be  

bridged to –.
