Product description
This chapter provides information on the special features and properties of the safe bus
node UE4215. It describes the construction and the operating principle of the device.
Please read this chapter before mounting, installing and commissioning the device.
3.1 AS3interface Safety at Work
AS7interface Safety at Work combines safe data and data that is not safe in mixed
operation in one bus system. The term AS7interface Safety at Work identifies here the safe
transmission for the integration of protective devices in an AS7interface network.
AS-interface Safety at Work components are, in compliance with EN 50 295 and
IEC 62 02672, compatible with all other AS7interface components. Existing AS7interface
applications can therefore be straightforwardly extended with safety-relevant functions.
AS7interface Safety at Work always requires a safety monitor that evaluates the safe
signals in the bus, and a safe AS7interface bus node that makes it possible to transfer safe
signals from safety-relevant components.
There are two types of safe AS7interface bus node:
safe bus nodes to which safety-relevant components, e.g. ESPE, emergency stop
pushbuttons or safety door switches can be connected
safety-relevant components with already integrated AS7interface Safety at Work
interface
Several safety monitors and up to 31 safe bus nodes can be used in an AS7interface
system. The parameters for the safety monitors can be set and diagnostics can be
performed using the AS7interface and configuration software.
With AS7interface Safety at Work, safety requirements up to category 4 in compliance with
EN ISO 13 84971 can be met.
