5.2  Control of "STO" and "SS1" via terminal module for option K82 
5.2.1  Terminal module for control of "STO" and "SS1" for SINAMICS G150 
Description 
Option K82 (terminal module for controlling "Safe Torque Off" and "Safe Stop 1") is used to 
control Safety Integrated Basic Functions in an electrically isolated fashion. 
Note 
Refer to the circuit diagrams enclosed for the interconnections of your device. 
Note 
The Safety functions must be activated prior to use via parameter assignment. An acceptance 
test must be performed and an acceptance log must be created. 
Option K82 is used to control the following Safety Integrated Basic Functions (terms and 
definitions in accordance with IEC 61800-5-2): 
•  Safe Torque Off (STO) 
•  Safe Stop 1 (SS1) (time-controlled) 
 
The integrated safety functions, starting from the Safety Integrated (SI) input terminals of the 
SINAMICS components (Control Unit, Power Module), satisfy the requirements according to 
IEC
 61800-5-2, IEC 60204-1, ISO 13849-1 Category 3 for Performance Level (PL) d and 
 61508 SIL 2. 
In combination with option K82, the requirements specified in IEC
 61800-5-2, IEC 60204-
1 as 
well as ISO 13849-1 Category 3 for Performance Level (PL) d and IEC 61508 SIL 2 are fulfilled. 
In addition, most of the SINAMICS safety functions have been certified by independent 
institutes. A list of currently certified components is available on request from your local 
Siemens office or local sales office.
