Wiring
Please note:
} Information given in the "Technical details [ 133]" must be followed.
} Outputs 13-14, 23-24, 33-34 are safety contacts; output 41-42 is an auxiliary contact
(e.g. for display).
} Auxiliary contact 41-42 shouldnot be used for safety circuits!
} Do not connect undesignated terminals.
} Delivery status of units with screw terminals: Link between S11-S12 (dual-channel input
circuit)
} To prevent contact welding, a fuse should be connected before the output contacts (see
Technical details [ 133]).

} Use copper wire that can withstand 60/75°C.
} Do not switch low currents using contacts that have been used previously with high cur-
rents.
} Sufficient fuse protection must be provided on all output contacts with capacitive and in-
ductive loads.
} When connecting magnetically operated, reed proximity switches, ensure that the max.
peak inrush current (on the input circuit) does not overload the proximity switch.
} On 24 VAC/DC units:
The power supply must comply with the regulations for extra low voltages with safe
electrical separation (SELV, PELV) in accordance with VDE 0100, Part 410.
} Ensure the wiring and EMC requirements of IEC 60204-1 are met.
Important for detection of shorts across contacts:
As this function for detecting shorts across contacts is not failsafe, it is tested by Pilz during
the final control check. If there is a danger of exceeding the cable length, we recommend
the following test once the unit is installed:
1. Unit ready for operation (output contacts closed)
2. Short circuit the test terminals S22, S32 for detecting shorts across the inputs.
3. The unit‘s fuse must be triggered and the output contacts must open. Cable lengths in
the scale of the maximum length can delay the fuse triggering for up to 2 minutes.
4. Reset the fuse: Remove the short circuit and switch off the supply voltage for approx. 1
minute.
