Description
Safety switch
The device may be operated only in conjunction with the actuator CET-A-....
Important: The actuator must be ordered separately.
Unicode evaluation
Each actuator is highly coded (unicode). The switch detects only taught-in actuators. Additional actuators can be taught-in. Only the last actuator taught-in is detected.
Solenoid operating voltage
- DC 24 V +10%, -15%
Guard locking type
CET2 | Open-circuit current principle, guard locking by solenoid force. Activation of the guard locking by applying voltage to the guard locking solenoid. |
LED function display
State LED | Status LED |
DIA LED | Diagnostics LED |
LED 1 rd | freely configurable |
LED 2 gn | freely configurable |
Additional connections
OUT | Monitoring output (semiconductor) |
RST | Reset input |
J | Teach-in input |
Category according to EN ISO 13849-1
Due to two redundantly designed semiconductor outputs (safety outputs) with internal monitoring suitable for:
- Category 4 / PL e according to EN ISO 13849-1
- The stated safety characteristics apply to any installation orientations of the safety switch.
Important: To achieve the stated category in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1, both safety outputs (OA and OB) must be evaluated.
