A.3.2 EMERGENCY STOP shutdown to SIL 1 or PL c with a 3SK1 safety relay
The 3RW52 soft starter has no effect or influence on the safety function of the application.
For this reason, it is neither positively nor negatively considered in the safety application, and
also does not have to be included in the calculation for proof according to the standards.
If achievement of SILCL 1 according to IEC 62061:2005 / PL c according to
EN ISO 13849-1:2015 is required, the series connection of an additional contactor with the
3RW52 soft starter, in conjunction with a suitable safety relay (e.g.: 3SK1111), is required,
as well as monitoring of the contactor's auxiliary contacts.
Basic configuration
Requirements
● If the soft stop function is set (ramp-down time setting element set to > 0 s) and the
emergency stop circuit is tripped, a "Missing load voltage, phase failure / missing load"
fault may be indicated on the soft starter. In this case, the soft starter must be reset
according to the selected RESET MODE.
