Formula Explanation
t
S
For the reaction time of the sensor (S), see the documentation of the sensor.
t
IN
Transmission duration from signal acquisition at the input terminal (IN) to the logic of the
MSS 3RK3; depending on the signal
t
RL
For the reaction time of the logic of the MSS 3RK3, see Chapter "Reaction time of the logic
(in error-free operation) (Page 172)"
t
FRL
For the fault reaction time of the logic of the MSS 3RK3, see Chapters "Fault reaction time
of the logic (single-channel actuator circuit) (Page 173)" and "Fault reaction time of the
logic (two-channel actuator circuit) (Page 173)"
t
DELAY
Input delay for monitoring functions and input cells at the inputs
t
TIMER
Timer functions in the logic (timer)
t
Q
Transmission duration from the logic of the MSS 3RK3 to the output terminal (Q); de‐
pending on the signal; for values, see the graphic above
t
A
For the reaction of the actuator (A) including the time until the signal has been received
and processed by the actuator, see the actuator documentation
