5.3 Connecting/wiring
5.3.1 Connecting safety-related inputs and outputs
Inputs
To achieve the required performance level or SIL, you can have single-channel or two-
channel interconnection of the inputs of the MSS. The following connection methods are
possible:
● In the case of the single-channel connection method, only one input terminal is assigned
for each sensor.
● In the case of the two-channel connection method, two input terminals are assigned for
each sensor. In mixed operation, both single-channel and two-channel sensors can be
interconnected on one module. Cross-circuit detection is possible.
The number of connectable sensors thus varies according to the connection method. Up to 4
two-channel sensors or 8 single-channel sensors can be connected to the 3RK3 Basic
central unit.
The safety-related inputs can also be used to read standard signals (non-safety-related).

Non-floating sensors
When sensors with non-floating outputs are used, they must not be supplied with power via
test outputs T1 / T2. With this function, cross-circuit detection must be deactivated in the
MSS ES tool.
