Chapter 1 Safety Concept
Considerations for Safety
Ratings
The achievable safety rating of an application using the safety option module
installed in PowerFlex 750-Series drives is dependent upon many factors, drive
options, and the type of motor.
For applications that rely on the immediate removal of power to the actuator,
resulting in an uncontrolled coast to stop, a safety rating up to and including
SIL CL3, PLe, and Category 3 can be achieved.
Contact Information if Safety
Option Failure Occurs
If you experience a failure with any safety-certified device, contact your local
Rockwell Automation distributor. With this contact, you can do the following:
• Return the device to Rockwell Automation so the failure is
appropriately logged for the catalog number affected and a record is
made of the failure.
• Request a failure analysis (if necessary) to determine the probable cause
of the failure.
