Installation
} The unit should be installed in a control cabinet with a protection type of at least IP54.
} Use the notch on the rear of the unit to attach it to a DIN rail.
} Ensure the unit is mounted securely on a vertical DIN rail (35 mm) by using a fixing ele-
ment (e.g. retaining bracket or an end angle).
Wiring
Please note:
} Information given in the "Technical details [ 48]" must be followed.
} Outputs 27-28, 37-38 are delay-on de-energisation safety contacts.
} Semiconductor output Y11-Y12 shouldnot be used for safety circuits!
} To prevent contact welding, a fuse should be connected before the output contacts (see
Technical details [ 48]).

} 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.
} The power supply must comply with the regulations for extra low voltages with protect-
ive 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 runs, we recommend the
following test after the installation of the device:
1. Unit ready for operation (output contacts closed)
2. Short circuit the test terminals S12, S22 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.
