2.1 About this manual
Who requires the "Safety Integrated" Function Manual and why?
The "Safety Integrated" Function Manual describes safety functions integrated in the drive
inverter for variable-speed applications.
The "Safety Integrated" Function Manual primarily addresses machine manufacturers (OEMs),
plant construction companies, commissioning engineers and service personnel.
What are drive-integrated safety functions?
"Safety" functions have, in comparison to "standard" drive functions, an especially low error
rate. Performance level (PL) and safety integrity level (SIL) of the corresponding standards
are a measure of the error rate.
As a consequence, the safety functions are suitable for use in safety-related applications to
minimize risk. An application is safety-related if the risk analysis of the machine or the system
indicates a special hazard potential in the application.
"Integrated in the drive" means that the safety functions are integrated in the inverter and can
be executed without requiring additional external components.
