Function description
Introduction
The PWM relay PNOZ s50 is used for the safety-related shutdown of inductive loads.
It has two power outputs to activate two independent, inductive loads. Each power circuit is
switched independently by two inputs. Two feedback loops monitor the switch status of the
inductive loads. Two failsafe outputs signal the switch status of the inductive loads to the
higher level safety control system. A failsafe fault signal output signals any fault to a higher
level safety control system.
The device is configurable. All the parameters can be set via a rotary knob with pushbutton.
The state of the inputs and outputs, the configuration and any faults are shown on a dis-
play. The configuration is stored on a chip card.
There is an integrated counter, which records the number of operations for each power cir-
cuit.
