Wiring
The following diagrams present examples of Safe torque off wiring for
•
a frame n×R8i inverter unit (page 192)
•
multiple inverter units (page 194)
•
multiple inverter units when an external 24 V DC power supply is used (page 195).
For the specification of the STO input, see the control unit description.
■ Activation switch
In the wiring diagrams below, the activation switch has the designation [K]. This represents
a component such as a manually operated switch, an emergency stop push button switch,
or the contacts of a safety relay or safety PLC.
• In case a manually operated activation switch is used, the switch must be of a type that
can be locked out to the open position.
• The contacts of the switch or relay must open/close within 200 ms of each other.
■ Cable types and lengths
• Double-shielded twisted-pair cable is recommended.
• Maximum cable lengths:
• 300 m (1000 ft) between activation switch [K] and inverter control unit
• 60 m (200 ft) between multiple inverter units
