Safety Function: Actuator Subsystems – Stop Category 1 via the PowerFlex 525 and PowerFlex 527 Drives with Safe Torque-off
This document presumes that a Stop/Start button is connected to the system PAC. It is referred to in Figure 2, but is not
part of this circuit. This button is used for normal, non-safety stops and starts of the system. It is also used to start/restart
the drive after safety-related stops once the safety circuit is reset.
