Kinetix 5500 Safe Torque-off - Hardwired Safety Chapter 9
Probability of Dangerous
Failure Per Hour
Safety-related systems are classified as operating in a High-demand/continuous
mode. The SIL value for a High-demand/continuous mode safety-related
system is directly related to the probability of a dangerous failure occurring per
hour (PFH).
PFH calculation is based on the equations from IEC 61508 and show worst-
case values. Table 68
provides data for a 20-year proof test interval and
demonstrates the worst-case effect of various configuration changes on the
data.

Safe Torque-off Connector
Data
The 10-pin connector consists of two parallel 5-pin rows for cascading safety
connections from drive-to-drive in multi-axis configurations.

Table 69 - Safe Torque-off (STO) Connector Pinouts
IMPORTANT Determination of safety parameters is based on the assumptions that
the system operates in High-demand mode and that the safety function
is requested at least once every three months.
