Operating principle of 3SU1400-1AA10-.HA0 contact modules with installation monitoring
The 3SU1400-1AA10-.HA0 contact module monitors proper installation or correct connection
to an EMERGENCY STOP actuator. If the contact module is incorrectly installed or is
disconnected from the actuator, the contact module initiates an automatic shutdown of the
machine or system. As long as operation continues, it is assured that all necessary contacts
are functioning properly.
When used with a SIRIUS 3SU1 EMERGENCY STOP device, the contact module can be
mounted in any position on the 3-slot holder.
When used with any other SIRIUS 3SU1 device, the contact module can only be mounted:
● At positions 1 and 2 on the 3-slot holder, or
● At positions 1 and 3 on the 4-slot holder.
In addition to increased safety, the 3SU1400-1AA10-.HA0 contact module also supports
compliance with the Machinery Directive.
The action of snapping the contact module onto the holder closes the circuits so that the
contact module is ready to operate.
The installation status of the contact module is continuously monitored. If an error occurs,
the machine is shut down automatically.
